So many servicemen and their families are dependent on the Armed forces to handle their earthly remains (presumably) with dignity.Lydiahttp://thesilverpeoplechronicle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-32353956580356129082011-12-22T12:04:26.469-05:002011-12-22T12:04:26.469-05:00Thank you both for your comments!

And especially not for those who were willing to fight and die for our country! Indeed, changes must be made.Joy Neighborshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517577511576153582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-78008152885055325682011-12-18T09:54:05.089-05:002011-12-18T09:54:05.089-05:00How could we have sunk this far to find this accep...How could we have sunk this far to find this acceptable to those who have offered the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom?

Thank you for sharing, Joy, I missed that headline! <br /><br />If they had scattered them at sea that would have been at least a little more acceptable. Where were their families??? I would have fired the lot of them! <br /><br />Even a reporter should not be expected to remain objective for this one, Joy! This is an outrage! "Thanks for dying for us. We'll just take you to the dump now." Outrageous! <br /><br />This makes me so angry! We have things that happen to our iwi (bones) here in Hawaii but those are BY ACCIDENT! Never, EVER, on purpose! Heads would roll and the judiciary would be pulled in so fast it would make your head spin! <br /><br />Yet another great article, my friend. Sorry for the over-the-top reaction but, trust me, we react that way around here. You're right, if it had been any other civilian mortuary, there would have been hell to pay!E.L.
