AP - In an about-face by the U.S. government four years into the war in Iraq, America's fallen troops are being brought back to their families aboard charter jets instead of ordinary commercial flights, and the caskets are being met by honor guards in white gloves instead of baggage handlers with forklifts.
***For the dead, honoring lips are mute. Soldiers indeed die in battles. But to die in another country, for a war that does not concern them at all is sad.
