ROTTEN BASTARD BUSHCO


Chad Bilyeu had to break the worst
possible news to Mr and Mrs Delle



Interesting article on the sad job as casualty information officer.

Nashville, Tennessee, is the cradle of country music, home of doleful ballads about love, faith and sacrifice.

Here, as elsewhere in the US, people worry about Iraq.

But unless they have sons or daughters serving there, most of them remain emotionally detached - and they never have to think about what the arrival of a marine in a white van means.

Marine First Staff Sergeant Chad Bilyeu is a delivery man of sorts. But with a knock on the door, what he delivers is the worst kind of news.

1. that has to be the toughest job in the world . . . I can't imagine that anyone . . .

could do it for more than a year, if that . . . it has to take a great deal of courage and a huge personal toll . . . God bless them for their caring service to these devastated families . . .

2. I was thinking the same thing.I have had to tell families who were expecting

their loved one to die the bad news,and it was harder than hell.

3. I DO find it interesting that this article was released by the BBC

Are our news outlets too cowardly to show this ugliness?
