What a load of fuss over a basic simplistic mistake

Traumatised relatives

Get a grip ffs imho

Indeed...

A bureaucratic error. Sad but a human error nonetheless...

Some people were calling for a resumption to genocide when a similar error was made when returning a body that had been buried in the rubble of what was once home to 2m+ people...

Makes you think about the priorities of those people ;)
 
I can see why people are upset. There could have been religious violations, not to mention the cost of a service for the wrong person and the pain and suffering caused by sending off the wrong body, or not being able to send off the right body.
 
I recall way back after the Vietnam war when the remains of some US service men were being repatriated to the US by the Vietnamese

When some of the coffins were opened they were not even human remains
 
I recall reports of some coffins were exhumed if service men from the First World War

They were casualties of various battles

When they opened the coffins there were scratch marks on the coffin lids from the inside :eek:

Assumed to have been dead and buried alive they than gain consciousness 6 foot under in a coffin

Jeez us wept :eek:

Our local cemetery’s a disgrace with sunken earth all over the place. In the US they use concrete grave liners to prevent this happening.
