This is a long video but well worth the 12 minutes it takes to watch it... at least in my opinion! If you read this paragraph pretty close before you watch it you see the turnout on the roadsides wasn't a planned event.
Killed in action the week before, the body of Staff Sergeant First Class John C. Beale was returned to Falcon Field in Peachtree City, Georgia, just south of Atlanta, on June 11, 2009. The Henry County Police Department escorted the procession to the funeral home in McDonough, Georgia. A simple notice in local papers indicated the road route to be taken and the approximate time. This video was taken as the procession moved through...

AWESOME! A TRUE HERO TREATED WITH RESPECT BY TRUE AMERICANS!
I bet he wasn't honored in Congress with a moment of silence like the weirdo Michael Jackson.

the video doesn't do it Justice...I was on the parade route with a bunch of friends......the fallen hero was from Mcdonough, which is a town real close to where I live in Griffin......It was an honor to show your respect for their sacrifice

I just watched this ENTIRE video with my wife and 2 small kids sitting on my lap. I have to be honest and say that the tears started about the time the first song started along with the first glimpse of "Old Glory"
Every one of these heros should get this. We truly live in the greatest country ever known to man

Every time I get to thinking people have gone totally crazy, something like this comes along and gives me hope for mankind.
Totally wonderful, if this does not give you a lump in the throat and a tear or two, you ain't human.
FREEDOM IS NOT FREE
