Airman killed in Vietnam laid to rest at Fort Logan


This is a joke. These people are already "laid at rest" (much like sailors in
sunken ships) and we are only destroying their resting place.

At the most, these poor people receive a leg bone, or a piece of skull,
or just a damned hunk of bone. Then they bury this in a full size coffin
and everyone thinks a "real" body came home. PEOPLE!! These people
are mostly dust now, there is no real remains except for microscopic
fragments that provide a low grade DNA sample.

****!



Indeed. These people really don't need your tasteless comments. Let
them have what little solace they can get. FWIW about 30 of the guys
I've flown in various squadrons with are still over there.
