On the other hand good point about not giving the Jihadis a burial site to revere.

Those spooks and sailors aboard the Glomar Explorer no doubt respected those Soviet submariners and fellow servicemen albeit from the other side. I doubt any of the servicemen involved in OBL's burial at sea felt anything like that.
Terrorists are nothing more than common criminal thugs and should be treated as such, they deserve no respect from proper servicemen. I wish they brought him back to stand trial in NY (including an all expense paid stay with Riker's Island genpop) followed by a lifetime in whatever deep dark hole the Federal Prison system has for such people.
Death in battle is far too good for such a man...
