What's Wrong Here


This is a picture of an honor guard carrying the casket of an airman who lost his life in a training accident in World War II. His remains had been frozen in the Sierra Nevada in California since the 1940's. He gave his life for his country in what has been called "The Good War". Apparently those in charge thought it would be good to get a picture of him being sent off to Hickam Field in Hawaii for identification.

Why then is it so difficult to get pictures of our young men and women who have died in Iraq as their caskets arrive in this country? This is the kind of thing that just makes me think that our government is nothing but a gigantic spin machine run out of the White House.
