"We ought not to presume to make that decision in their place, added Gates, who began reviewing the policy at the request of President Barack Obama."
Wow, this 0bama is a real p.o.s.
Titled: America's Combat Dead. Circa 1943. Inside, lists by State, those who had died to that point in the war.
Thank you for sharing that photo, garandgal.
Today, the jihadis and other anti-Americans disrespect our war dead by using photos as propaganda for their agenda.
Since it is left up to the families, I strongly suspect there will only be one or two photo shoots allowed. It will be the Cindy Sheehan types who will want photo coverage, the rest of the families will have too much respect for their returning loved ones. Apparently this will require a private area at Dover since the other caskets arriving can not be photographed and anyone violating that will be subject to lawsuit by the family of the others. Good way to compensate some families, class action against newspapers and magazines.
