Thought I'd share a letter I just sent to the show Fox News Watch. It's in reference to the decision not to show the bodies of the dead Americans.


As a soldier who served in Somalia and who just returned from a year in Iraq, I am personally glad that the pictures of the bodies were NOT shown. I have never looked at the picture of the soldier being drug through the streets in Mogadishu nor will I look at the pictures of the dead American's in Fallujah. I don't want to know if the dead person was someone I knew. The sight of their desecrated bodies is NOT the way I want to remember them.
