I know in the days of WWII and Vietnam, usually a military person and a priest went to the home of the mother or wife of a soilder that died in the line to tell them in person. How is that done today? I'm just curious. I was watching "This Week" this morning and they had their memorium in which 18 names of fallen soldiers were shown. I got sad looking at all those names and ages (mostly under 25.) Then I thought of their families and how their loved one are told about their tragedy.
