Humans war against each other all the time, and throughout history hundreds of millions of people have died on the battlefield.
This begs the question, what happens to the bodies?
Like on the beaches of Normandy, thousands of people died. But the beaches, to my knowledge, aren’t filled with dead bones and stuff.
So where did they go? Is there a secret service that collects bodies?

It varies. Of course the bodies are supposed to be collected and sent back home for proper burial, but war is a mess, it doesn’t always work out that way. Might be a while until someone gets around to burying the remains and it might happen in a local ditch with no proper identification depending on who finally does the job. Could even be the remains get scattered by animals and it’s years until somebody stumbles on a skull or something.
