There are many Tomb's of the Unknown. Obviously, the whole point is that the person buried in said Tomb was never able to be identified, which is why they are buried as a tribute to all who were unable to be identified. With new genetic matching techniques, it is today sometimes possible to tell whose remains are there, and it wasn't when they were buried.
