I saw the video, and it jumped out at me, immediately, that the soldiers, at least 3 or 4 of them, had been executed. In fact, some looked like they had just been executed at the facility where their bodies were being held, the blood had flowed freely from their wounds onto the floor. A body that had been dead for any amount of transport time wouldnt bleed like that.

blood begins to congele after death.
As the heart stops beating and oxygen no longer fuses with the hemoglobin. platelets and other clotting materials begin to clump together. This is why organ donations can't be taken from a body that's been dead for a considerable but short amount of time.
With a headshot (unless it's a clean kill) the heart doesn't stop instantly. As a result a few pints get pumped through the skull. If the bodies were shot on the field and dragged there they'd be drained of most of the blood and the only stains should be from their clothing and residual loss.
I saw a video of a guy committing suicide with a gun to the head. Very gruesome. It detailed though the effects quite well.
Sorry if this sounds morbid.
