Very cool. Any ideas what's in the second crate? I would assume if he was a K-9 Handler and they were both killed the dog would get a flag also but maybe I'm just presuming too much.___________________________________________

Damn allergies.
That's really great that they are doing that, and are quite organized at it too.
When I worked with Northwest Airlines up in Minneapolis, it always impressed me how the ramp workers would stop what they were doing and pay their respects when a fallen service member arrived.
I always felt like there was something more that could be done though. I got in touch with the supervisor in the gates where they always brought those flights in, and we converted an old baggage cart into a dedicated, appropriate mode of transportation. We also organized all of the veterans that worked the ramp to render honors (like the sideboys do aboard ship). We were always very proud to be able give our men and women a somewhat dignified welcome home."It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."Comment
