I would assume the flight had landed in the East or West coast. The detail was there to keep them from spitting on the casket.

I would ask the person to meet me outside as soon as we are allowed to deplane so I could explain, as a CHIEF, exactly why s/he is wrong in expressing his childlike attitude.

I know how I would react. I would show my respect to the family of the fallen warrior.

I would silently join the family to pay respects to their loved one, as well as some extra security in case the disrespect grows more bold. I am not a tiny person and as a Marine I found that I could often defuse situations by saying nothing.

I would accost him and ask him to explain his actions. His response would dictate further action.....

I would stand and salute the family. They lost enough i their lives without being shown disrespect from a bunch of yahoos.
