What is your opinion about Posthumous Promotions? Should they be routinely done?

Its a small thing but no soldier should be buried with no rank on his sleeves. Had a few soldiers in my unit that got busted down to E1 on deployment for whatever reasons. If they had been killed, it doesn't matter what they did, they made the sacrifice and should be buried with at least E2 rank on his dress uniform.

My condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.
As he was on the list for promotion, the Army had already determined he was capable, it was just waiting for the structure to support him. That issue is moot (through the most unfortunate way), and there is no reason not to immediately resolve it.

I extend my thoughts and prayers to the friends and family of this warrior! He died doing what he loved - serving his country with dignity, honor and respect. I am glad he was promoted, that was an act of class for him.
