USAF Vet Willing to Offer National Cemetery Burial Plot to Bombing Suspect (Freak State Alert)
Fox 45 Baltimore ^ | 5/6/2013

Posted on 05/06/2013 6:10:09 PM PDT by markomalley

US Air Force (USAF) veteran Julie Frein said she is willing to give up her burial plot at Arlington National Cemetery to Tamerlan Tsarnaev - the deceased Boston bombing suspect.

The Anne Arundel County woman told Fox45 she feels the terrorist suspect should be able to be laid to rest and just wants it to all be over.

"I feel sympathy for [his family] in that as long as this issue is open, they can't have closure," Frein told Fox45's Joy Lepola. When asked how she thought Americans would react to the suspect being buried in a national cemetery, Frein replied, "Well the country would just have to get over that, wouldn't they? Because nobody, nobody deserves to rot above ground."

Frein has already called the funeral home in Massachusetts where Tsarnaev's body is currently stored and is in the process of contacting the Office of Veteran Affairs to see if she will be able to offer up her plot.

Frein served in the USAF for two years. Her husband served in the US Navy for 20 years.

He’s a dead piece of enemy crap now. No one wants crap buried in their back yard. Oh, except a mindless liberal woman. Did she offer her burial site to the little boy that got blown up? Didn’t read about that.

My Aunt is buried at Arlington. I don’t think she served in the military. But her husband served in World War II and then for the government in rocket research later on. I figured being the wife of a vet was enough then? Would you happen to know? But perhaps I’m mistaken and she is a vet as well.

Like in one of those Clint Eastwood movies, something to the effect of:

“No we’re not gonna’ bury him. Buzzards got to eat - same as worms.”

USAF utilized the draft in the early 60’s when they didn’t meet their recruiting quotas. Draftees served two years. Enlistment during that period was 4 years.

Didn't old Teddy Kennedy get planted at Arlington? I ‘feel’ plenty terrorized by his healthcare law. No I am not advocating the murderer get a spot in the National Cemetery. But I was not for old Teddy Kennedy getting planted there either.

Gads! I was actually joking with someone the other day that Holder will probably find a way to bury the terrorist in Arlington. I thought it was a joke, at least.

two years? The Air Force has never offered two year enlistments.

probably one those scenarios where she got an assignment she didn't like so she got knocked up.

Lay him to rest in a dumpster and let the rats and dumpster divers feast on him.

Yes, it is true. Arlington is reserved for MOH winners and their wives, those who were KIA, and such because there just isn’t enough room at Arlington for everyone who served.

Yo... take a deep breath. “Women are not qualified mentally to be in the military” simply because some nutso thinks a terrorist should be buried in Arlington?! That’s... just brilliant. I (yes a lowly woman in your eyes) served 23 years in Navy, had command of a ship in the Gulf, and do not share the thoughts of this AF so-called vet. Most vets, including women, do not. If you’d engage your brain before your mouth you’d realize that no one gets a “reserved spot” in Arlington and there are specific requirements to be buried there... being a terrorist isn’t one of them. Although “spouses” can be. http://www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/FuneralInformation/EstablishServices.aspx

Exactly.

And the National Cemetery doesn't let just any ol person be interred there, especially a “civilian” that is nothing more than a cowardly terrorist.

Since her husband spent 20 years in the Navy I would suspect that they were both in the military when they met, got married, and she applied for a separation because of marriage or pregnancy or both. Pretty common.

They are good admin troops.

They are not warriors.

While they may carry a weapon and such, they certainly do not have the natural aggression of a warrior.

They can be mean, they can be nasty, but they are not aggressive. Men are warriors, unless they are democrats.

Men with their oft-mocked aggressive chest-thumping behavior are driven to aggression by testosterone and that is what makes men warriors. To deny this is wrong-headed.

War fighting: It is natural for men. It is unnatural for women.

To ignore the role of physiology in war fighting is to ignore basic biological imperatives, embrace liberal lunacy and say, “well, heck, no difference between men and women in any situation, testosterone, estrogen, monthly cycles, whatever, we are all the same. . .aren't we just grand.”

From a career in the USAF, I have seen many women pilots.

The best female pilot I've seen was good. Not excellent. Not superior. Just “good.” In pilot training most all women wash out, and if it looks like none of the women have the right stuff, then the strongest gets a Samsonite handle attached to her back and she is carried through the program.

Why?

When flying fighters a natural aggressiveness is necessary to turn that machine into a weapon of war, and to do that you need to be aggressive, not mean, you need to have a driving innate force within you to fight.

The swagger and bravado of females that fly fighters (not female fighter pilots, as there are none), is forced, is not natural.

I won't even go into the sexual dynamics of a unit when females are introduced, as well as the issues that arise from a societal point of view (and what is says when we send young mothers with small infant children off to fight in wars).

Tow years of service? Unless she meets some other criteria, I doubt she has the plot to give away.

Criteria under which a non retired service member may be buried:
From the Arlington Website:

d.Any former member of the Armed Forces whose last active duty (other than for training) military service terminated honorably and who has been awarded one of the following decorations:
1.Medal of Honor
2.Distinguished Service Cross (Air Force Cross or Navy Cross)
3.Distinguished Service Medal
4.Silver Star
5.Purple Heart

(There are some others, but I doubt she served in the 1940s.)
