Thats the way I would want to go:

With the enemy beneath my feet,
With my nation's flag on my shoulder,
With my weapon (smoking) in my hand,
my brothers to bring me home,
and the American flag on my casket.

I can't think of a better way to go ;) (well, I can think of alot of WORSE ways to go)

" When a Soldier was injured and could not get back to safety,
his buddy went out to get him, against his officier's orders.
He returned mortally wounded and his friend,
whom he carried back, was dead.
The officer was angry. "I told you not to go," he said.
"now I've lost both of you. It was not worth it."

The dying man replied, "But it was, Sir, because when I got him he said,
'Jim, I knew you'd come.'"
