Funeral services are scheduled Friday for a U.S. Army soldier from central Ohio who was a prisoner during the Korean War. The remains of Private First Class Leroy Bryant were brought home to Columbus yesterday, more than 65 years after his death in a POW camp. Bryant's remains were recovered and identified last year.
