Death notification

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A death notification is a letter delivered to the family of a solider or public service member who has died on duty. Usually, the Military of the United States withholds the name of a deceased member until the family has been notified.

For military notifications, there are usually three persons involved: the notifying officer, a medic (in case the family member faints), and an officer that stays in the car in case the family members react violently.
