Body of U.S. Soldier Dumped As “Medical Waste” in Virginia landfill

Via CBS News:

A landfill is no one’s idea of a fitting resting place for a soldier fallen in battle.

Yet as CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports, that’s what happened to Gari-Lynn Smith’s husband, Sgt. 1st Class Scott Smith, who in 2006 was blown apart by a roadside bomb in Iraq.

“No service member, no human being at all, should be put in a landfill, no matter if it’s a fingernail, a foot or an entire body,” Gari-Lynn said Thursday.

Without her knowing, part of her husband’s body was incinerated and disposed of as medical waste in a Virginia landfill.
