Communications From Elsewhere » FOIA coffin photos update:
Are NASA astronauts US military personnel? I don’t know. In any case, here’s an easy way to tell the difference between the Columbia crew and casualties of the war in Iraq: the Columbia crew photos are the ones shot during the day, with an honor guard in full dress uniforms and a high-ranking NASA official saluting them; the Iraq war casualties are the ones being unloaded from cargo planes at dawn or dusk by people in camo fatigues
Makes you wonder if the war dead were a surprise to anyone . . .
