Who is the Unknown Soldier?

Are you referring to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? If so, it represents all of the soldiers who died in action that were not able to be identified. Because they don't know who they are, they can't contact family, but are still deserving of a burial with honors.AnswerThe US has four Unknown Soldiers; from World War 1, World War 2, Korea, and Vietnam. By the time it was decided to have an Unknown Solder from Vietnam, forensic science had progressed to the point that it was very difficult to find a dead US soldier who could not be identified, but one was finally found. Furthermore, it is now quite possible that the previous three Unknown Soldiers could be identified if the tomb was opened. As stated by the above answer, the Unknown Soldier represents US soldiers who were killed but not identifiable for traditional burial. If the question is asking about the exact identity of the Unknown Soldier, the word 'unknown' should be a clue.

When was the unknown soldier born?

For an unknown soldier's birthday to be known, his identity would have to be known, and he would therefore not be an unknown soldier, but you should have figured that out when you asked the question. If you mean the original Unknown Soldier from World War 1, it is reasonable to assume that he was born in the 1890's. If he had been born in the 1900's he would probably have been too young to fight, assuming he did not falsify his age.
