I believe he served in the US Army

He spent 2 years in the Army and he has family there. It’s by the book, I think, however unfortunate that may be.

His presence can’t desecrate the deserving. That’s just not possible.

Damned if I know....I thought I heard that because space is running out that now being a vet doesn’t get you buried there - you have to be a vet who has served in combat.....the only combat I know that this ass served was when he was fighting to get out of a car that was under water.....I’m livid that he’s going to be buried there and my father who is a 26-year AF vet can’t be.....

[Why is Kennedy being buried at Arlington?]

Cause dumping his carcass in the Chappaquiddick channel was a health hazard? Just a guess.

****Why is Kennedy being buried at Arlington?****

I was wondering the same thing. I don't think that Ted Kennedy was ever in the military.
