Public Service for National Guard Soldiers

[erpowers]

The Louisiana National Guard held a public service for six soldier who died in Iraq. The Pentagon had asked the Louisiana National Guard not to hold a public service, but the guard decided to follow the wishes of the family and hold a public service.

1. And WTF should the Pentagon be

trying to dictate a soldiers funeral.

2. Publicity! We must avoid publicity!

If nobody sees it...it didn't happen.

:grr:

3. And CBS broadcasted a long segment on it. Good for the National Guard

At least its a crack in the bullshit of the military

4. My sentiments exactly

CBS also broadcast that it is now official that the search for WMDs in Iraq is over. The conclusion: there were never any to be found. Yet another crack in the BS.

6. Unfortunatly the Dem's didn't promote the fact that the search was

"officially" abandoned over a month ago. Gee, would that be just after the election?

7. I did not know that.

Thanks for the update.

8. Yup. The team was sent back over a month ago. Didn't tell the media

or the media wasn't looking/reporting. Big surprise. Not.
