McCaskill Wants Formal Probe of Problems at Dover Base Mortuary

Following reports of “gross mismanagement” of the remains of fallen troops at the Dover Air Force Base mortuary, Senator Claire McCaskill wants an investigation of the Air Force Inspector General, and a halt to any retaliation against whistleblowers who brought the revelations to light. McCaskill says any “reprisal against a federal whistleblower is unacceptable.” She was in front of the Congressional effort last year to turn things around at Arlington National Cemetery after reports of unmarked and mismarked graves of veterans.
