Air Force Investigates Noose And Chain Casket Photo
The Air Force is investigating a photo in which several airmen posing with a man in an open casket with a noose and chains on.
The airmen pose with their hands crossed and under the photo is written “Da Dumpt, Da Dumpt …. Sucks 2 Be U” and was posted on Facebook.
The Air Force Times reports:
The purpose of the photo, its inscription and its intended audience are not known. It surfaced one month after the public disclosure that the Air Force’s Port Mortuary at Dover Air Force Base, Del., had lost and mishandled the remains of hundreds of fallen troops.
Air Force Secretary Michael Donley expressed regret Tuesday night that the photo might cause more turmoil for families of fallen troops.
