New Military Mortuary Opens
At Dover AFB

10-27-3


(Dover Air Force Base-AP) -- A new 20 (m) million dollar mortuary will open today at Dover Air Force Base. The base has the largest military mortuary in the country, and the new facility will be twice as big as the old one.
It will offer a state-of-the-art first stop for the remains of casualties of war and civilian incidents abroad. The new mortuary also will have a new boss in Karen Giles, who since August has headed the mortuary. She replaces Michael Tocchetti, who stepped down in June 2002.
Giles says she and her eight full-time employees will start moving into the new building on Tuesday, along with reservists and civilians called in to augment the staff during the Iraq war. She says she hopes the facility will be operational by the first week of next month.
