This is just wrong

I love dogs, but this is just wrong in my opinion.  A friend sent me this and wanted me to post this around so folks will know how bad a Medal of Honor winner's remains are being treated.

I understand the outrage but why don't they just put a fence around the grave?

A nice wrought-iron fence, with a plaque explaining the circumstances of the award would go a long way to alleviating the problem, and also educating the public.

That doesn't help the 3000 other un-moved burials from being peed on, however.

I believe this man HAS a place for him at Arlington National Cemetary. If the people of that city and county  cannot respect their history then it should be removed from them and placed where it will be HONORED. As a MEDAL OF HONOR winner he is guarenteed a place at Arlington.     DON BELCHER SFC ARNG ret.

I agree.  To the liberals teaching in colleges today the Medal of Honor is just a babble.
