Update: Sister's Husband's Funeral @ Arlington today
 

The GodHatesFags assholes never showed up today, not that we'd notice with all the vet biker groups hanging around.

The Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta along with some 3 star generals showed up to give their respects. They also had a B52 bomber do a flyover because it had a special meaning to my brother in law and his vet buddies.

It was very unusual because they don't do that sort of thing for just anybody and the SoD is a busy guy. The whole ceremony was amazing.

I'm extremely saddened that I had to be in that situation, but I am very happy and honored that I got to experience it.

The entire past 4 days have been very physically and emotionally draining. At least, through his fellow vets who were in theater with him over the past 17 years gave me a real insight into who he was. The good and bad alike, but really not a single person had a bad thing to say about him.

Glad it went well.

nice for their families that they got a ceremony like that - won't bring them back but having the US Secretary of Defense attend will always stick with them that his death wasn't for nothing. His country called and he answered and made the ultimate sacrifice.

glad you went to it Uno!

He died for Israel. (and got what he deserved.)

Invaders get killed when they march into someone elses country. Dont want soldiers killed, stay in your own damn country for a change and stop causing wars all over the fucking place.

Fuck you.

Well, if he had gotten a REAL JOB instead of sucking on the government's teet and killing sandafricans for college money, he'd still be alive.

Choke on a dick and die, you fucking faggot.

I guess you did not see my first comment. Fuck you.

Glad it turned out ok for you and your family. I wonder if the God Hates Fags people ever come to the west coast as I would love to confront them.

Wow glad it went well for you buddy! Sad to have had it happen.

TO INTERNET USER: That was uncalled for, I really hope the mod's ban your dumb ass for this, but with freedom of speech which our soldiers died for in play I guess you have a right to stay even though it was uncalled for.

Hey fuck head, my brother could of taken any job he wanted and could of went to any college he wanted and he joined the service.

Agree with the war or not, it makes me sick when people like you bitch when you don't gree with a fight but godforbid a day came where someone came and tried to take over your way of life you would be on your knees praying for the ppl you are saying shit about.

Don't ban him, just expose who he is. If the mods would let us know for sure who these fake nicks really are, then 95% of the trolls would be gone from GFY. None of them have the balls to talk shit like this using their real identities.

how fucking sad that in such a sad situation, some people come to just get attention

whether factual or not, that's another time and place to rant about it, show some godamn respect or get the fuck outta here.

I think he even crossed the troll line. Can't believe anybody would say that, given the heartbreaking situation. Its really beyond what should be tolerated even on a forum called 'go fuck yourself'. Sad sad sad story uno. I wish you and your family all the best. Glad the funeral protest never materialized. Talk about throwing salt on the wound.

Maybe InternetUser is part of the Phelps clan.

I'm glad it went well too.

My condolences to you and your family Uno. It sounds like he was remembered and honored in style.

Sounds like it went well, I'm glad.

My condolences to you and the family.

Yup, they wouldnt be so brave, when they could'nt hide behind a keyboard:2 cents:

He isn't a fake nick, just an idiot that was banned for something truly uncalled posted on another topic

GOOD GOING Theo:thumbsup:thumbsup

Good job Theo but perhaps its best to delete the thread? Either way good job.:thumbsup

Very cool to hear! From your description of the funeral, sounds like your Sister and family should be so proud to have known and loved him. Nice way to be honored and remembered!!!

Glad to hear the problem with those other fucks never materialized....

Sorry for your loss

I'm glad those assholes didn't show up and your brother-in-law got a fitting burial filled with respect.

Glad it went well and it sounds like he received a very beautiful ceremony as deserved.

THANK YOU

and my condolences in here.

My Grandfather was buried at Arlington when i was 12. I attended, it was a very sad, but proud and patriotic funeral

Your brother-in-law died a hero's death.

My grandfather and one of my best friend's from high school are buried in Arlington, it is quite a honor and I'm happy you and your family got to experience the tribute he deserved.

I'm so happy to hear the protesters never showed up and your brother in law got the respect he deserved.

nice to hear everything went well at the ceremony, hope you have a quick recovery

I'm glad things went well.

He edited the post and all the replies to the post. Nothing to worry about there.

I couldn't believe it when I read it. What a sick fucking thing to say. I wasn't going to ask for a banning, but I was sure he'd be banned anyway and rightly so. No one fucks with my lil sis.

He had a really bright future ahead of him that his superiors planned on. The more i've heard from his superior officers, even generals, the more in awe I am of my brother in law whom i barely knew. Him being a great husband to my sister and a great father to my niece and nephew was already enough for me. The stories from his fellow soldiers that either served with and under him along with the speeches and comments from his superiors and some very high up superiors are simply incredible.
