Note: I see the family all the time and when they put their son away after the military funeral they ask all people to be happy he died doing what he loved. They said ( In Newspaper article) "We want all to laugh and be over joyed when they think about our wonderful son". Our son was a happy man and we want all to be happy over our son. So, When I meet them should I laugh?

These people were very proud of their son who died serving our country. I do not think they intend for people to actually laugh when they think of their son so much as they want people to celebrate their son's life instead of mourning his death.

the backside casualty estimates, based on the now-renounced North Vietnamese statements, are around a million.5 million Vietnamese killed. Vietnam released figures on April 3, 1995 that a entire of one million Vietnamese combatants and four million civilians have been killed interior the conflict. The accuracy of those figures has many times no longer been challenged. fifty 8,226 American infantrymen additionally died interior the conflict or are lacking in action. Australia lost very almost 500 of the 40 seven,000 troops that they had deployed to Vietnam and New Zealand lost 38 infantrymen. are you able to describe to the hundreds of thousands of families of people who died in Vietnam - US, Anzacs, Vietnamese? there have been no Viet cong terrorists blowing up people in enormous apple; neither did they supply the effect of being for to get carry of nukes. families of all infantrymen in Iraq, Afghanistan are not precisely extremely joyful to be sure their companion and youngsters bypass to conflict in a distant places land. They do using fact it somewhat is their duty. Putin and the full worldwide chuckle using fact the US President isn't as eloquent as Churchill - in no way concepts. Years from now whilst a Clinton-sort leads u . s . a . of america to worldwide isolation, i could prefer to be sure the faces of the Putins of the worldwide dealing with the extremist Islamists international places. I wager they're going to yearn for the undesirable previous days of George W Bush. i can not be around. i'm hoping you would be.

Your confused. They want you to remember him as he was full of life, happy, a good friend, brother father, son,
football teammate, etc.
Respect the choice that he made to protect you by putting on that uniform, and knowingly going into harms way.
Do you get the drift now?
Should you laugh when you meet them? Hell NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simply greet them as you normally would or did before their son died.
Just ask yourself this question?
What if it was you! how would you want your parents and family treated? then simply do it for these people.

They probably didnt mean as in LOL, or OMG hes sooooooooooooooooooo funny, no pal, probably its just as in like:"man, X was an awesome guy, he did.... and hed always....., Id never forget'm, oh, and Joe, remember the time when X .... and then he.... hahaha[' as in that type, but if you walked up to his mom and started to roll on the floor laughing, Id spray the hell out of pepper spray in your face if I had to,
so If I was you, Id say:"Im sorry for your loss, and thankful for your son's service" would do, you dont need a Memorial Guard and Lost Man Formation by an air squadron, all you need is what I said before,
Stop acting foolish (jokes),man

You should celebrate his life, is what the family is saying.
You are already ridiculing them by posting your question.
You should not meet that brave soldier's family. You should not meet anyone until you have gotten professional treatment for your sociopathic tendencies.

Understand you sewer swilling moron that if you do that in my presence I will beat you until there is not a bone left unbroken and your twitching carcass lay on the ground quivering in pain. But, since you are far to much of a coward to ever say anything in public I guess I will never get the chance.
Oh no, this d-bag will email you if you say something mean about him. What a stupid coward. Can't step up and say something in public. LOL.

Sound like a quick way to get punched in the face. You know the answer to this question. There is no person with less honor then someone who does not respect fallen soldiers on either side of a war.

Eridite,
Is this a joke? This isn't at all funny! I think you should do whatever is in your heart, just remember, that man died so you would be able to get on the internet and ask goofy questions.
