I'm aware of the chain(s) involved, thank you very much. If you still believe that state flags are more appropriate to cover a soldier's remains, so be it.

My basic point was that that the U.S. Department of Defense has no business telling the leadership of a state National Guard how to conduct itself in a matter like this. That's why the Defense Department's wishes were given as a "request."
