    When remains of two or more individuals killed in the same incident cannot be individually identified, a priority message should sent to Navy Mortuary Affairs who will determine if there is a need for an identification specialist to be sent.  If remains cannot be individually identified, the collective remains will be interred as a group interment.  Group interments should be made in a national cemetery within CONUS, as close to the midpoint of the two most widely separated homes of record of known deceased individuals involved, or as otherwise directed by the program managers.  Navy Mortuary Affairs will coordinate with the other services as required.
