They may have even had a brief discussion about recovering my
body, but regulations are clear. In the event a crewman dies on
Mars, he stays on Mars. Leaving his body behind reduces weight
for the MAV on the trip back. That means more disposable fuel and a larger margin of error for the return thrust. No point in giving that up for sentimentality.
