Received a film clip some days ago from the US where some group of anti war protesters attend the funerals of lads and lasses killed in ops and cheer the fact that the individual met the fate that he/she did. The gratifying part was that also in attendance where ever the protesters turn up is a group of literally hundreds of Harley bikers who not only ride in the procession but at the grave side encircle the gathering and stand to attention with an upraised US flag so forming an effective 15 foot high barrier. Guess they cant stop the noise of chanting etc tho.
