News section of YBW "... On arrival at the scene, the crew picked up a gas cylinder, buoys from the end of lobster pots and a palate they then proceeded to head back to the yacht,.."

Can a pathologist identify the deceased using the palate and dental records? Or is a bit more required?
Certainly a problem the authorities could get their teeth into...

When I served with a Transport Regiment one of their tasks was moving palletised loads. I recall a letter to all officers from the Adjutant referring to "an unpalletable decision"
