Why are military evacuated remains loaded feet first?
Remains AND casualties, are always carried feet first... Casualties travel feet first on level ground down hill and stairs, except when there is a leg fracture. •Casualties travel feet first on ground and HEAD FIRST in transport, is to theoretically to allow rapid FEETFIRST unloading upon arrival at a care facility. If on a litter, feet first in the direction of travel so that if there were a forward momentum mishap, again they could land on their feet, except when they are suspected of having leg fractures, then they are moved head first....and loaded in the transport vehicle with the head in the direction of travel s to prevent the momentum from creating too much blood travel to the head while in transport. (we dont want peronnel standing on their head while in trasnport) REMAINS loaded feetfirst on the transport vehicle are identifiable as being 'remains' and are therefore not requiring continued observation and care while in transport. Best I can answer...with information form Aviation personnel.
