1. None of the top military brass is attending his burial

It makes me so mad! :grr:

He will certainly be missed, he was a true soldier for truth.

3. His death barely got a mention on CNN where he worked

Unreal.

7. How horrible!

Not one of them? Not Bush? Not Cheney? Not Rumsfeld? Wolfowitz? Rice? Any assistant on their behalf? I signed the guest book just thanking him and his family for his service and I hope he's resting in peace.

8. Boston Globe article

Here is yesterday's Boston Globe article that said no top brass is attending:

It's infuriating, and at the same time, so sad :cry:

2. Great man, Hack!

He wouldn't want anybody there who had failed as a commander of troops. Hack valued the men and women of the military to highly to be expansive towards bad military leadership. That is the present day top brass!

Peace be with you and your loved ones, Hack!:toast:
