Realistic Answer: Probably varies. It really depends on a whole bunch of 
pueculiar little things, not the least of which are climate and location. 
Things in buildings and bunkers might still have a bit of meat left. Oh yeah, 
desert bodies buried by a sandstorm might wind up mummified. 

But...

Deadlands Answer: Like you said, stinky, rotting,zombies are freaky. Hence, 
you could just chuck those around under the assumption that the Reckoners 
want it to work that way. 

Or you could go for variety. A few skeletonish, a few dropping bits and 
pieces, and a few with teeth marks left by rats. Kind of a compromise.
