Yeah a lot of people can't access our .mil sites from outside the states.

I'll see if I can get a batch and host them and show you.

It's not about so much geographical location. I know that some people here in Australia can access the domain while some can't. I remember few people saying that they have dynamic IP and sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. It seems like the US government just filtering IP almost completely randomly

United Nations Command Honour Guards carry coffins which contain the remains of soldiers who fought in the 1950-53 Korean War during a repatriation ceremony at Yangsan U.S. military base on May 26, 2005 in Seoul, South Korea. The remains were recently found by a joint recovery operation in North Korea, recovered by a U.S. team sent to South Korea. The remains will be transported to Hawaii where the joint POW/MIA accounting command will start the identification process. The U.S. military has suspended operations to recover remains of missing U.S. service members in North Korea because the uncertain political conditions have raised concerns about the protection of U.S. military personnel there.

The pallbearer in the middle. Are those wings on his right side, above the name? If so, whose? He has US wings on the other side.
