The Army has announced it will open a criminal investigation into the unknown remains held in 8 separate in a grave marked "unknown".  Arlington National Cemetery records showed that there were only one set of remains buried in the grave marked "Unknown".  The discrepancy has led to the criminal investigation.  Mismanagement and scandal have been revealed at one of the country's most revered burial grounds since July when it was first made public the record keeping problems and the possibility that up to 6,600 graves were mislabeled.

An article in this morning's Washington Post concerning the cemetery details 20 years of mismanagement and petty infighting among the top officials at the cemetery.  While the casual observer believed the recent revelations about problems at Artlington were new, internal Army documents show the military had been trying to fix systemic problems at the cemetery for years.
