This was just a final piece on Liam Tasker and his dog. One thing that is very neat is that when a British solider dies in battle their body lands at the Royal Air Force base in south England and takes the same route to its final destination and in doing so passes through this one small town: Wootton Bassett. When the vehicles pass through the town the people line the street in silence as it goes by. It has become a very touching tradition. Unfortunately we really don't have anything like that in the US.
