                Department of the Army
                Notice of Intended Disinterment
                AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD.
                ACTION: Notice of intended disinterment.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: The Office of Army Cemeteries (OAC) is honoring the requests
                of the Rosebud Sioux family members and an Aleut family member to
                disinter the human remains of 10 Native American students from the
                Carlisle Barracks Post Cemetery, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The decedent
                names are: Sophia Tetoff from the Alaskan Aleut; and from the Rosebud
                Sioux: Lucy Take the Tail (Pretty Eagle); Rose Long Face (Little Hawk);
                Ernest Knocks Off (White Thunder); Dennis Strikes First (Blue
                Tomahawk); Maud Little Girl (Swift Bear); Friend Hollow Horn Bear;
                Warren Painter (Bear Paints Dirt); Alvan (Kills Seven Horses); Dora Her
                Pipe (Brave Bull). These students died between 1880 and 1910 while
                attending the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. At the request of the
                closest living relative for each decedent, OAC will disinter and
                facilitate the transport and reinterment of the remains in private
                cemeteries chosen by the families at government expense. This
                disinterment will be conducted in accordance with Army Regulation 290-
                5. This is not a Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act
                (NAGPRA) action because the remains are not part of a collection. They
                are interred in graves that are individually marked at the Carlisle
                Barracks Post Cemetery.
                DATES: The disinterment is scheduled to begin on June 14, 2021.
                Transportation to and re-interment in private cemeteries will take
                place as soon as practical after the disinterment. If other living
                relatives object to the disinterment of these remains, please provide
                written objection to Lieutenant Colonel Scott Tasler or Captain Jason
                Netteler at the email addresses listed below prior to May 1st, 2021.
                Such objections may delay the disinterment for the decedent in
                question.
                ADDRESSES: Objections from family members and public comments can be
                mailed to Lieutenant Colonel Scott Tasler or Captain Jason Netteler,
                OAC Project Managers, 1 Memorial Avenue, Arlington, VA 22211 or emailed
                to [email protected]
                (preferred).
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lieutenant Colonel Scott Tasler or
                Captain Jason Netteler OAC Project Managers at the email address listed
                above.
