The Department of Defense has reversed a George H.W. Bush-era ban on media access to war dead returning from fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Media will be granted access to what is called the “dignified transfer” of the remains of service members who died while serving in Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.
