Pentagon Releases Flag-Draped Coffin Photos
The Pentagon provided most of the images without context, so it was unclear where and when they were taken and whom they portrayed.
Most of the photographs showed soldiers carrying or saluting flag-draped coffins. Some of the labeled pictures were of remains of the Columbia space shuttle astronauts, military accidents around the world and deceased veterans of previous wars, while signs in the background of a few pictures identified their location as Afghanistan.
Released on day of Bush press conference. They know that the presser will overshadow this.
And still, they were releasing photos that aren’t really those soldiers.
