People in the south really value Patriotism.
For a government that hates them and openly denigrates them. Such a waste that anyone would be willing to die for that.

Captain announced that we need to remain seated until the casket has been removed.
That's a great story and all, but I wonder why.

I guess it was loaded before the passengers boarded maybe?

I rode shortly behind the procession up I-75 yesterday.. It was an emotional experience.
Respect!

As someone who has done a dignified transfer, the casket is loaded before the passengers board the aircraft. As in the posters experience, pilots will come over the PA system and announce the specifics and will ask everyone to remain seated while the military members on board step off to retrieve the casket.

That's good stuff.
Yes it is.
The most impressive (IMO) is when a Canadian military member dies.....the whole COUNTRY gets involved like this.
