[edit]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 (talk • contribs) 23:55, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- 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)
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)
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)
Non-US personnel
[edit]What were GR units required to do with enemy or allied dead they found on the battlefield? 67.231.67.253 (talk) 23:41, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Air Force
[edit]"The Air Force has a similar facility at Dover AFB in Delaware, manned by the Army's Mortuary Affairs Personnel." Similar to what? 67.231.67.253 (talk) 23:43, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
