This is the story of how James lost his son to The Navy in 2015 and the events that followed. Henry Price was happy and filled with ambition and a love for life, like most young men his age. He enlisted in the military after high school in hopes of getting the free college GI Bill to follow his dreams. He joined the Navy with hopes and aspirations but had no idea what would happen when he got posted in Japan. This story follows the events that happened after his death and how different gold star families of our fallen servicemen are treated if they haven’t died in the line of duty. Henry was returned in the cargo hold of a United Airlines flight from Seoul to Chicago. No Military guard unloaded the plane, just the poor baggage handlers sweating in the tropical heat. His body was inside a wooden crate, no flag, nothing. This is a story of a gold star family and how they deal with the death of their beloved son.
