To: Choose Ye This Day
Here's where my suspicious meter clicks on: When she's asked about her son's letter from Iraq, she immediately says there's a lot of "personal stuff" in there that she doesn't want to discuss, then she discusses all the family stuff.
I think it's a safe bet that her son's letter said something to the effect that he thought he could do some good in Iraq, or that he was doing what he wanted to do and believed in. He had just reenlisted. But this isn't about her son for her, so I think she's totally using him and covering up the fact his views were the opposite of what she's doing to his memory.
I say show us the damn letters Cindy, he's the one that went to Iraq not you!

I cannot believe that none of Casey's friends or relatives have come forward with copies of his letters or e-mails stating HIS feelings or opinions about the war in Iraq.

Aren't all soldiers carry or write a letter to parents in case they are killed in combat. If he had one, wouldn't you think if he was opposed to the war she would have shared it? She doesn't make any sense at all. She can't even defend her own cause, and can't use her son's death because she has nothing to indicate that he was against the war. She should be honest with herself and say she's just an angry anti-war protester and leave her son out of it. She's a poor excuse for a mother.
