    Uh, idk. There is a world where a countries armed forces determining a safe procedure to deal with an extremely large mass casualty event is proper planning with chaplains. It’s a really bad look though for the US.

      How does adding chaplains to the loop make things worse? That’s the thing that changed here. The mass grave training was already being done.

      Also, as much as it sucks, it’s probably good to train this if you want people to receive “proper” burials. It’s not training expecting it will happen, but training in case it happens. It’s similar to all service members training to fight and shoot, even though the majority will never fire their rifle off the range. Preparation is good so if you need it you can do it without totally fucking things up.
