Shouldn't this be renamed "Joint Mortuary Affairs Center"? That is the term used by DOD now for this component. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KrishGR (talkcontribs) 23:55, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The center is different from the service. The service includes the center, and other things too. (Like the ones listed here) Raul654 (talk) 03:00, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment

[edit]

I've assessed this as start for MILHIST, but it's close to meeting the criteria for B: some paragraphs are uncited, and the excessive paragraph breaks and short sections mean that it's a bit hard to read. More details would be appreciated as well, it seems brief and does not go into depth; that's currently my main concern for B. – Joe N 20:50, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested Edits

[edit]

Factual ommission/error: MA ensures feet first when remains are transported in a 'nose down' air transport, and head first in a 'nose up' air transport. This prevents livor mortis from resulting in a 'flushed face' effect. Suggest reference to 'feet first' transport is changed to reflect this. HadesScorn (talk) 05:28, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
