I hope they arent preparing this expansion of a military cemetery for an eventual inundation of corpses from a future war against Iran, if so, then God help Americas youth :fright:
There is going to be an American offensive in Afghanistan probably this year. We are sending 17,000 troops there.
A congressional proposal to expand Arlington National Cemetery onto land now occupied by the Navy Annex and Fort Myer has been at least temporarily put on hold, but officials predicted that in the long term, at least some of the property may be turned into grave sites. Members of a House-Senate conference committee said yesterday they have agreed to remove language from a Defense Department appropriations bill that would have transferred the land to the cemetery, which is approaching full capacity. Instead, the bill calls on the Army to study the issue and consult with local officials, according to Sen. John W. Warner (R-Va.), who helped negotiate the new language. http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-674165.html
