Final Homecomings

Two huge developments on the flag-draped coffin front: First, the original contractor / photographer, Tami Silicio, and her husband David Landry, an employee at the same firm, were fired by their employer Maytag Aircraft. Predictable, yes - but still a big deal.

Second, 361 images of flag-draped coffins arriving at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware have been released via a Freedom of Information Act request by The Memory Hole. These pictures are going to be everywhere tomorrow - they have already been featured on all of tonight's newscasts except (wait for it) that of Fox News. (NYT Story)

Can't believe I share a name with that network (though I know my Dad is pleased).
