That really sucks. :mad:
It's not like they are bringing home a hundred a day. They surely have the manpower just hanging around the Pentagon to handle this duty properly.

May your Journey Lone Eagle not be in vain and the Great Spirit forever hold you gently in the palms of his hands.

Thank You,

My grandmother is on the Cherokee nation roll but I didn't read it. I don't want to cry. I'm a marshmallow and sensitive.


I don't want to go to work with a tear in my eye.

After Neil Santorello heard the news that his son, a tank commander, had been killed in Iraq, from the officer in his living room, he walked out his front door and removed the American flag from its pole. Then, in tears, he tore down the yellow ribbons from his tree.

Rather than see it as the act of a man unmoored by the death of his 24-year-old son, the officer, an Army major, confronted Mr. Santorello, saying, "Don't be disrespectful," Mr. Santorello recalled. Then, the officer, whose job it is to inform families of their loss, quickly disappeared without offering any comfort.
Son of a bitch.:mad:

Remember that the administration did not want pictures of those coffins arriving in Dover AFB. Why? Well, the article describes how coffins instead arrive in FedEx planes as cargo. In one case, only the airport fire department did that soldier just honors.
