Gawain 0 #3 May 10, 2008 QuoteUS war dead cremated in pet cemetary. www.reuters.com/article/vcCandidateFeed7/idUSN0952161920080510 Words fail me as to how you are incapable of actually conveying an accurate summary of reported information: QuoteThe Pentagon said it had no evidence that the remains of troops had been treated inappropriately at the crematorium. According to officials, the remains of humans and pets were cremated at separate incinerators at the Delaware crematorium. This may surprise you, but most crematoriums that are not part of a funeral home cremate human remains, amputated limbs, and animals. Often in separate incinerators. So, no, US Troops killed in action are not cremated in pet cemeteries.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Who has those things anyway?I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

DSE 5 #7 May 10, 2008 Why has no one has corrected the misspelling of "cemetery?" Or is it Sematary?In our small community, the funeral home maintains an incinerator that also incinerates pets. Separate burner from the one used for humans, however. One accepts a casket-sized basket, the other one is much smaller. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, no, US Troops killed in action are not cremated in pet cemeteries. If it is so APPROPRIATE, how come the military is not going to do it any more now that it has been exposed? Why did McCain complain about it? Why did Gates apologize? Defense Secretary Robert Gates believed the earlier situation was "insensitive and entirely inappropriate for the dignified treatment of our fallen," said Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell. "Our heroes deserve to be better treated than that," Morrell said, adding that a sign at one of the crematoriums noted that it also does pet cremations. He said Gates offered an apology to military families for the insensitivity. Amazing that people can get so worked up about a Time magazine cover, but consider this is OK.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rushmc 23 #11 May 10, 2008 Because of bull shit responses like many of those posted in this threadBecause SOME people seem to have a need to make shit out of thin airBecause the media supports those that do the above "America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

kelpdiver 2 #12 May 10, 2008 Quote If it is so APPROPRIATE, how come the military is not going to do it any more now that it has been exposed? Why did McCain complain about it? Why did Gates apologize? Because enough people either deliberately or via ignorance (you're the former) choose to pass on a false truth. Me personally - I couldn't care less if there are a few grams of ash from someone's dog with me. And some people might actually prefer it, hopefully not to the point of having their surviving pets cremated along side. Of all the lows in the handling of this war, this doesn't even make the top 10. Or 50. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hhhhmmmm "The mere fact that they are in a facility that also performs this same service for pets is, in the estimation of Defense Secretary Robert Gates and, I daresay, almost all the men and women you see walking around this building in uniform today, not appropriate for their service and sacrifice," Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell said. I agree with Gates and McCain on this one. Clearly you think it funny, from your inappropriate response.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
