WWII airman on Kokoda Track?

Recently a man by the name of John, while trekking the Kokoda Trail, happened upon what he thought to be a body hanging in the trees above. He was taking photos of some flowers in the canopy when he noticed what he thought looked like a human body twisting in the breeze.

It is thought that if indeed it is a human body, it may be the body of an Airman from World War Two, no doubt Australian or Japanese or American even.

The Australian Defence Force (ADF) is sending a team to attempt to recover the remains.
