This is a genuine Dept of Defense press release announced on March7. (NOT Dept of War — there is no such thing.)
A “believed to be casualty?” WTF????
Got that – the “believed to be death” and well, we think the dead guy could be this CWO3.
Has the family been advised? What is the Survivor Assistance Officer supposed to tell the family? Maybe the SAO could say something like: “Well, we got this dead guy and we think he may be your husband but we’ll let you know after we figure it out.”
