The military does not provide mortuary services to fallen soldiers in the theater of operations. They are placed in transport containers called Ziegler Cases overseas, flown to Dover Air Force Base, provided with the finest mortuary care there is - seriously, the people who work there are awesome - and respectfully escorted to their families for proper internment.
If you would like to know HOW awesome these fine individuals are, every soldier will be buried in a "dress green" (officially "service"
uniform, and the fallen of non-Army services will be buried in their branch's equivalent uniform. They pull the soldier's military record, find out all of his or her authorized awards and decorations, and set up the uniform to a standard that would please the pickiest inspector.
Little pissants like Trump and Hegseth aren't going to keep Air Force Mortuary Affairs Operations from doing right by the troops they serve.
