Press Allowed To Cover Return of Dead Soldiers

For the first time in nearly 20 years, the media was permitted to witness a casket containing the body of a dead soldier arrive on U.S. soil. What do you think?

Young Woman

Helen Steuben,
Willow Worker
“Does this mean the press will be able to see alive soldiers returning to America sometime soon?”

Black Man

Paul Sabers,
Mechanical Engineer
“Well, I guess this makes pictures of the unemployed slightly less depressing.”

Young Man

Tony Koch,
Systems Analyst
"I’m glad they’re doing it, but it’s a shame that the question-and-answer part didn't go so hot."
