It is indeed. I don't find the story itself sad though. I am pleased that this man can now be put to rest properly.
It is sad that he lost his life so young, yes.
I feel it now would be worthy for him to be buried with full military honours and honoured for what he fought and died for by those that are left and still appreciate it.

SAD is some of the comments left by some of the idiots after the story X(

Agree with you Jiggy, closure for family (if he has any surviving members) and can be laid to rest properly.

Riveting story. Sad, yet a story of pride and courage. Didn't want to anger myself and read the comments ;)
