WWW.THESPARTANDAILY.COM VOLUME 122, 53 FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 2004 Children bond with SJSU parents Employees fi red for taking photos of soldiers’ caskets

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon lost its tight control over the images of coffi ns returning from Iraq as about 350 such images were released under the Freedom of Information Act and a Seattle newspaper published a similar photo taken by a military contractor. After Dover Air Force Base, the main port for returning remains, released hundreds of government photos of the ceremonies, the Defense Department ordered Thursday that no more photographs be released. In addition, two employees for defense contractor Maytag Aircraft were fi red after the Pentagon complained about a photo of fl ag-draped caskets taken by one of them appeared in the Seattle Times. In March 2003, on the eve of war in Iraq, the Pentagon ordered an end to all media coverage of ceremonies for the returning remains of soldiers killed overseas. Although Dover already had such a policy, the Pentagon action enforced a military-wide ban on images of fl ag-draped caskets that dated from late 2000 but had not been followed. With few exceptions, the ban had remained in force until recent days. But last week, about 350 photos from Dover were released under a Freedom of Information Act request by Russ Kick, a First Amendment advocate who runs a Web site called the Memory Hole (www.thememoryhole.org). Dover had recommended that Kick’s request be denied, but offi cials at Air Mobility Command headquarters at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois authorized the release on appeal. After Kick posted the photos, they appeared on other Web sites, including the Drudge Report. The sudden spread Thursday of the Dover photos of fl ag- draped caskets returning from Iraq came a day after Tami Silicio and her husband and co-worker, David Landry, were fi red for the photo she took at Kuwait International Airport of caskets in an aircraft. The photo was published Sunday on the front page of the Seattle Times. “We have terminated two employees in Kuwait who violated Department of Defense and company policy by working together Andrew Hendershot / Daily Staff to photograph and publish the fl ag-draped caskets of our service Enrique Lopez holds his daughter Rikki during the “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day” on Thursday.

According to the Times, Silva said the fi ring decision was made Workers bring their daughters, sons to campus for a fun-fi lled day of career exploration by the company, but the military had “very specifi c concerns” about the photo.
