My cousin does this for the UN although not as a volunteer, she was part of the team identifying bodies at Srebrenica. Tough job, I'm proud of her.

I think that's referenced in one of the Arkady Renko books.

Another interesting (if very short) video from 2011 here:

I didn't realise that there are German teams in Russia repatriating remains for re-burial.
