Mass Body Disposal, Post-Collapse

This article discusses disposal of dead bad guys or large numbers of dead strangers, not disposal of “your” dead. You will obviously treat your loved ones and friends differently. The health protocols and technical aspects will also apply to the burial of loved ones.

In my discussions of less-lethal force and crowd control, I advise against “just shoot everybody” as a tactic in all but the direst of circumstances because lots of dead bodies have to be disposed of. In Iraq, oftentimes the wives and mothers of dead insurgents would come out to claim and remove their loved one’s body with help from family if Coalition forces didn’t take custody of the dead for intelligence purposes.

  2. Although it is not likely that you would ever face such horror, it is probably a good thing to understand that such gore and mental health issues could be a thing that you face.
    We all have to understand that the so called Coming Civil War part 2 would likely involve things that we would never face in normal times, and pray that we never see it.
    However like Thomas Paine stated, I don't want war, but if it must come, let it come in my lifetime, that my children may know peace.
    Who ever thought that we would have to even consider such horror in our own lifetime?

  5. I'd think large bonfires would be more efficient, plus I wouldn't be too concerned with identification of bodies or taking photographs of the scene. Plus you could roast marshmellows and make smores while you're at it.

    1. I'd think they'd taste kinda funny.

    2. It will take a huge brush pile, Huge, to burn just one body. After disposing of skunks on top of a brush pile I've extrapolated just how much wood would be necessary for just one human body. Hollywood always underestimates depictions of a funeral pyre.

  6. Dead muslims?
    Hogs gotta eat.
    Then there's a story about Black Jack Pershing handling a situation...

    1. My great, great uncle was an aide to Pershing before WWI. He rode with Pershing against Poncho Villa. Unfortunately, I was to young to ask him about the Philippines. I really regret not getting him to talk when I was a kid.
