Rather than keeping it for himself, Kolton askedfor his mom's help finding Rhonemus, the name on the dog tag. With a littlehelp from social media, Kolton's mom soon connected with Kimberly, the sisterof the late U.S. marine Steven Rhonemus. 

 It turns out, Stevenpassed away in a motorcycle accident in 1974, meaning his dog tag had been lostfor more than 46 years! Kolton and his parents arranged to meet Kimberly in thepark and present her with the tag.
