2.0 BACKGROUND

PRP Company is the Marine Corps only Mortuary Affairs Company, requiring specialized training not usually available through normal means. Military provided training is limited in the realm of casualties, relying on live persons acting as casualties, or training dummies; both of which only provides limited training value. The use of cadavers for training immediately and measurably increases any training value that is provided to mortuary affairs Marines ultimately preparing them for combat missions and increasing the experience level without overseas combat experience. This is the closest training available to a live scenario and may be the only experience the Marines have with realistic casualties before a deployment.
