| Rep. Eshoo Statement on Reversal of Ban on Media Coverage of Soldiers’ Coffins 2.26.2009 Washington, D.C. – Rep. Anna G. Eshoo (D-Palo Alto) issued the following statement today after Defense Secretary Robert Gates announced an end to the ban on media coverage of returning military coffins. “President Obama and Secretary Gates’ decision to reverse the ban on media coverage of the returning remains of our nation’s heroes is highly commendable and long overdue. Our remembrance of them should be made visible to every American. My friend and constituent Karen Meredith, a Gold Star Mother, has dedicated herself to reversing the ban in honor of her decorated son, First Lieutenant Kenneth Ballard, who was killed in Iraq in 2004.” http://eshoo.house.gov/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=569 |
