Pics

The United States military is conducting a formal investigation into American soldiers burning the dead bodies of what appear to be Iraqi insurgents.

TMZ obtained 41 pictures that we're told were shot in Fallujah in 2004. Two pictures show a Marine appearing to pour gasoline or some other flammable on the remains of what officials believe are 2 insurgents. Two other photos show the bodies on fire. You then see charred remains.

Another photo shows a Marine crouched down next to a dead body and mugging for the camera.

Still another pic shows a Marine rifling through the pocket of the pants on a corpse.

We have not included all of the photos. Many are just too gruesome. There are well over a dozen bodies in the pics and some are covered with flies and one is being eaten by a dog.

We turned them all over to the Pentagon last week, and a Pentagon official tells us the pics have triggered a Marine Corps investigation.

This is going into the yearbook guys. Remember to smile!


#8 is a good one

Sounds like the bodies were decomposing and being eaten by feral dogs, so they burned them. Probably not the best decision, but not necessarily the "horrific" story that is being promoted.

Going through the pockets for ID before burning the bodies would be expected, I'd think.

Of course. It's a perfectly rational action.

That's my first thought....but why take the photos?

For their 15 minutes of fame?
