Dover mortuary whistle-blowers shocked by problems

WYOMING, Del. (AP) -- The body of the Marine lay on a gurney at the Dover Air Force Base mortuary, an arm bone jutting out from the torso.
Embalming technician James Parsons wondered how he would be able to get the stiffened arm back into position so that a uniform could be put on the corpse for a viewing. Parsons and a co-worker asked their supervisor, Quinton "Randy" Keel, what to do, and he told them to take the arm off, then left, according to Parsons.
"I'm thinking, `This is just wrong. We shouldn't be doing this,'" Parsons recalled, contending that consent should have been obtained from the Marine's family first.
Parsons refused to cut off the arm and instead stood and watched as his co-worker - a new employee still on probation - grabbed the saw and removed the limb, which was then placed alongside the Marine's leg inside an undergarment that would be covered by his uniform.
