After death I'd like my body to
1)Be used to save lives immediately - organs/tissues anything
2)Be used to save lives in longer run - scientific study, storage
3)Be used in training.
4)Be disposed of free for my family not to have to pay to get rid of a shell.

BUT
While 1) is easy the others less so. I'd like to simply say that whatever unit is closest to me at my death gets the corpse you can't. You need a pre-existing agreement with one unit and need to change that if you move, it closes etc. What if I die on holiday?
