Iraq War

Family members and close friends of the six soldiers killed in action on 1/6/05 watch as the caskets are unloaded from a military transport plane on Wednesday 1/12/05 at the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Belle Chase. Lydia Babin wipes tears from her eyes during the ceremony her husband Chasse Babin was one of the soldiers killed. The press was positioned off to the side far away I was focused on the soldier and just for a second the widow leaned over to wipe a tear away.
