That's a strange (and a new one to me) case, indeed.

I hope people with forensic expertise should shed some light on this.  Below
is my amateur 'analysis':

I know many Communist troops froze to death and formed "deadly forests"
during winter months.  But "normal" sudden death in warm weather would
indicate death by chemical agents or perhaps suffocation due to napalm
nearby.

Bodies are normally consumed by a host of animals (rats, snakes, dogs,
birds, insects, worms,,,) from outside and bacteria from inside.  It is
possible that these critters were casualties of the war in the area.

Maggots would indicate insects from outside depositing eggs in the bodies.

                    I wonder if any of our buddies out in Korea in 1951 can
tell me if they
came accross the mysterious deaths of North Korean Soldiers who were found
"fully armed" squatting on thier haunches, and positioned in "Four Collumns"
of 14
to a row, The group consisted of 2 Officers' a few NCOs and the troops, It
seems
they were all "DEAD strangely DEAD",
