We do not have to know every last detail about everything. Some things - like graves - should be left alone.

I watched a program last weekend about the curious death of Merriwether Lewis of “Lewis & Clark” fame. His death at a roadside in on the Natchez Trace was ruled a suicide, despite the fact that he was shot twice (in the chest & back of the head) with a ball & cap pistol — neat trick when you think about it.

He has family that would like to exhume the body and have a forensic coroner look at the remains with a view toward correcting the official record. But the national park service — that erected his grave monument — will not permit it.

Now here is a situation that begs for a review. Enough is known about Operation Mincemeat, that maybe they should just let it alone.
