JerryD,
What does the "W" stand for in "John W Eason?" Your wife and I may have common relatives. My family history comes through Barnwell county....or was that a "township?"
I agree with David; the flag issue could be argued both ways. Is it possible to separate the political part and simply honor the soldier? Were any Confederate or USA sailors buried in foreign soil? Could we expect our flag to fly there as it does in Normandy? Would you consider the soldiers that Bill is talking about as being buried in foreign soil or homeland?
