There was a casualty officer there who sets up the call. My guess was that the President was trying to call all 4 families that day so it put pressure on the casualty officer to take the call at a really bad time. Should have held off until better circumstances came about.
Another good observation. I hadn’t thought of that. Does this officer have any input on timing?? Or circumstances (speakerphone or makeup of audience).

If you are serving as a Casuatly Assistance Officer or NCO, you have had extensive training but have probably little to no experience. It is a lengthy process to guide a grieving family through the loss of a loved one. You do your best to carefully navigate through any potentially painful incidents. But you are not perfect.
