PENTAGON’S STUNNING ADMISSION: GOV’T HAS HELD ‘PHONY’ CEREMONIES TO HONOR FALLEN U.S. SOLDIERS FOR YEARS

The Pentagon has admitted that dramatic repatriation ceremonies held at a Hawaii base have been fabricated to make it appear as though flag-draped coffins holding the remains of fallen U.S. soldiers were arriving that very day from old battlefields, NBC News reported.

In reality, the remains had already been sitting in American labs for months. The planes were also defunct and non-operational, so the notion that they carried the bodies back to the U.S. is an impossibility.

These controversial staged events have been carried out for the past seven years by the government’s Joint Prisoner of War Accounting Command, known as JPAC, with the stated purpose of honoring the fallen.

After months of questions, the stunning admission was made in a statement from the Department of Defense to NBC News.

Officials said that these so-called “arrival” ceremonies began in September 2006. Rather than literal in nature, the events have been intentionally pre-planned to be ceremonial — but this hasn’t been adequately conveyed to the public.
