Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Ladies and Gentlemen , Are we seriously expected to believe that member of this list is suggesting that a member of the British armed forces was mutilated in this way. As a former member of Her Majesties Forces and a registered Nurse since 1974, may I suggest the list owners take action to seek clarification of this matter and the details passed to the appropriate authorities. If however it is found that this " True story " is in fact false, perhaps we should reflect upon whether a site such as this, is an appropriate place for such an individual. Grant McLaughlin RN Ref: Reminisces The topic of drinking and sniffing things got me to reminiscing about an incident that happened concerning the British Army in Germany, circa 1985. A young British soldier was found dead in his (individual) barrack room and the military police could not work out what/who had killed him, so a Post Mortem (Autopsy) was needed. The Army Pathologist thought that the soldier may have inhaled some sort of toxic substance and wanted further specific tests carried out. The lads head was severed, packaged and dispatched to the UK for forensic examination. On further investigation and searches of the lad's room, a significant pile of BCF vehicle fire extinguishers was found in a locker (funny how the MP's missed them the first time !!) and it was concluded that he had been firing the extinguishers into his laundry basket then sticking his head in to inhaled the fumes. And to make matters worse for what appeared to be a very poorly handled investigation by the MP's, the SNCO tasked with hand-carrying the head back to UK got drunk on the ferry and throw it overboard.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Hi , I can quite believe it. On a trip to Scotland Yard's Black Museum I was shown an arm that had been sent to the police by the French authorities. All our plod had been asking for were fingerprints!!!

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Grant, I think the chances of me as the list owner ever finding out if it was true or not are next to zero. In honesty I can't see too much wrong with the post, it is neither directly offensive nor implying any wrong doing, it is purely an anecdote. A little off the wall maybe but then the list has been quite of late:-) However for the record - Gents lets keep it professional.....

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 If memory serves me correct similar things can happen in civilian life. A number of years ago a sight seeing boat (The Marchioness?) on the Thames in London sank with heavy loss of life. As many of the bodies were trapped in the wreck and there was going to be a delay in raising it there were concerns about identifying the bodies. The solution that I believe was arrived at was to send down divers and to amputate the hands of the bodies for finger printing. This understandably caused quite an outrage when it was eventually revealed.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 It does seem outlandish, but having read that highly infectious body parts were dumped on an open tip in the UK I am prepared to be open minded about almost anything these days. I would have thought they would have sent the whole body home for a forensic then burial according to his families wishes after it had been released. If true it is a very tragic thing.
