The US military practices digging temporary graves in the event of major military conflicts. "The military is preparing for the grim prospect of burying fallen soldiers on the battlefield by testing how quickly they can create temporary graves with remains preserved for eventual identification and return to families after the end of the conflict," Hagana News writes, citing a US military press release. During the exercise in North Carolina, engineers, preventive medicine teams, chaplains and disaster responders prepared for a mass temporary burial not seen on a large scale since the Korean War. Army doctrine dictates that temporary burial sites consist of five parallel trenches that can hold 100 bodies. It took the US Army an hour and 15 minutes on average to create a trench for 20 bodies. The third phase of these exercises will take place in the spring of 2027. More IZ RU news in max.
