Prompted in part by the painful experience of a Las Vegas mother whose son was killed in Iraq, the Pentagon said Wednesday it will change a policy on burial rights for military personnel.
Service members will be required to clearly designate a person responsible to dispose of their remains should they be killed, according to John Molino, deputy undersecretary of defense for community and family policy.
