How To Honour Our, Young-Boys, Afghan_Casualties?

As casualties mount, should we honour dead-soldiers with the flag at HALF - MASTING? Current flag policy doesn't allow it. Would you tend to think it diminishes the impact of the HALF - MASTING? Should we follow the way U.S. civilians use YELLOW - RIBBONS? Are we OVERdoing it? :-(

It would not hurt to start some kind of campaign like that Lionpuppyheart. Maybe you could use a different color so it could be your own countries special thing. Pick a color from the uniform of your soldier's dress uniform. Get it out on a public radio station and someone would start making them and folks would definitely start wearing them. i know it would catch on. It does not have to be a government thing. Ours was not. A very good Idea Lionpuppyheart!!! Shalom~Adoniah

It seems, OBVIOUSLY, pepole definitly are NOT interseted in such topics :-( SAD OUR both countries are in Afghan loosing young boys, so that we here could be SAFE---FREE Yet, most of us, has you can see, lack any interest... How did the US citizens came about the Yellow-Ribbons? What is the connection?
