Sounds like a lot of hysterical old women are posting here lately.
As if playing the last post is the end of the world. There are far worse things happening in the world every day,and the public are far more concerned about carbon taxes than engineers or pilots trying to keep their jobs in Australia.
I am sure that those who "may" have played the last post,if it is so proved,would apologise sincerely if they offended those with a right to be offended,namely service personnel & families. Most of the posters here have no such right.
It has to be taken in the context with which it was played,the symbolic death of a great company,nothing more,nothing less.
