so let me guess. there are no dental records in Ghani... so they couldn't take an imprint and go drop it back to the body! only courteous thing to do...
I think the "lad" was creative.

Nato forces are supposed to be winning 'hearts and minds' and bolstering the fledgling Afghan National Army. This incident, however, has apparently appalled Afghans on all sides, not least because it offends the Muslim tradition of burying the dead with all body parts, attached or unattached
Like that stops the muslims from doing it-the old debate if one side does it,the other will do it +1...they been doing it for centurys.

"Having identified their target, a fierce battle ensued during which the warlord was killed. To prove that they had got their man, the Gurkhas attempted to remove the body for identification. Further enemy fire necessitated a fast exit minus corpse. So, an unnamed soldier drew his kukri - the standard-issue Gurkha knife - removed the man's head and legged it.
Ten out of ten for initiative. Nought out of ten for diplomacy."
