I'd love to read the rest of the story but it requires registration. Any chance you can give us the Reader's Digest version?

Hopefully this was not a NYT puff piece on Uncle Teddy and he indeed was respectful of the Marine and family.
They have been known to make up things from time-to-time (ahem)

God I hate t cry in the afternoon. May the parent find comfort and pride in the fact that their brave Marine did not die in vain.
