Remainders of last two war dead found

The remains of the last two Australian servicemen missing from the Vietnam War have been found in the ruins of their crashed bomber.

A RAAF search team, which has been excavating the crash site near the Vietnam boundary with Laos, found human remains which have been recognized as pilot Flying Officer Michael Herbert, 24, from Glenelg, South Australia, and navigator Pilot Officer Robert Carver, 24, from Toowoomba, Queensland.

Both died when their Canberra bomber crashed while returning from a charge on November 3, 1970.
