Depends if they've all come back from being deployed or if they're just a bunch of desk jockeys who got daddy to get them a cushy (safe) detail.  Remember, these are Wisconsin National Guard.  Some of them only play G.I. Joe.

I'll hold judgement either way until I know more about them individually.  If they've been through rough times overseas, well - bad taste and all, but.  If they're spoiled brats making a mockery - court marshal their sorry asses.

It's hard to understand how anyone can not see this as totally inapropriate under any circumstance. Gallows humor should not be meant for public consumption and any kind of humor, at the expense of fallen heroes, is as low as it gets

It's a squad dicking about around an empty coffin during training. Nothing more than that.

If the coffin had someone in it, it would be different. Very different.

Absolutely.
