oh...I thought this was posted earlier. Couldn't find because freight was misspelled in the other thread. Thanks.

My comment from the other thread on this topic:

It's not on display, it's not being received, it's simply being transferred to its next destination. Do you expect an honor band at every stop if there's a forklift nearby to see it?

This is not a display of disrespect. It's shipping. It's also yet another MSM story written simply to try to discredit our military. (They can't do anything right, they don't honor their dead, etc. Divide the Right and conquer, as always.)

When it is appropriate, when they are being receieved or seen on a public tarmac, I feel sure that they will receive the honors they are due.

What doesn't sit well with me is the notion that the media is trying to allege that they are more concerned with honoring the fallen than their brethren in arms who are responsible for such procedures. I guaran-dang-tee you that those in uniform do not shirk that particular responsibility.
