People start booing.
..but they are just booing because the flight is being delayed... the booing has nothing to do with the dead marine.
..and you don't find that disrespectful??
Well no, we don't know that they announced they were loading the coffin of a dead service member. For the life of me I've never heard the captain give that specific of an announcement for a delay. That leads me to think that the announcer said there was some delay. Then people booed. The father knew or thought he knew the delay was about his son's coffin and then combined that together to say they were booing his dead son.
In any case, booing a delay because of a coffin of anybody is terrible, much less a servicemember, so, if true, shame on the narcissistic first class passengers.
