ResumoAn account is given of the forensic dental aspects of the investigation of a military air disaster. Ten of fourteen victims had dental structures remaining for postmortem evaluation. Of those ten, all were successfully identified by dental means. A six man dental team took three days to complete the evaluation. Specific problems encountered are reported, and recommendations to overcome these problems and simplify the processing of military dental IDs are submitted.
