This is no way to treat an American hero…

Look, if you are in charge of driving a hearse carrying a deceased person to their funeral there are a few things you DON’T do. For example, you don’t go to the wrong cemetery.
And you don’t stop at DUNKIN DONUTS for a maple bar and a cup of coffee- that’s common sense!
Well, apparently that is exactly what these 2 hearse drivers did while carrying the body of a war hero Lt. Col. Jesse Coleman who served in Korea and Vietnam.
WFLA reports:
A man named Rob Carpenter did a double-take on his way into his New Port Richey Dunkin’ Donuts. But there it was, straddling two parking spots: a hearse, with the front window down, back curtains drawn and a flag-draped coffin on display.
He took video, snapped a photo and then confronted the funeral home workers when they returned, coffee and a bag of doughnuts in hand.
Carpenter, whose own father served this country in the military, described his confrontation with the driver.
“I’m like, ‘Is this really a body in here?’ and he says, ‘Yes,’ and I said, ‘So you have a dead soldier in the back of your hearse and you’re stopping to get coffee?’ And he didn’t say anything.”
Carpenter said the men didn’t seem at all remorseful. So, he sent his video and photo to the local group, Veteran’s Warriors.
“It was very upsetting and very disrespectful to this solider and their family,” Carpenter said.
Lauren Price, who is the head of Veteran Warriors, posted the photo on Facebook and it went viral. “I was physically ill when I saw that, and I was very upset,” Lauren Price, of Veteran Warriors, said.
“None of our brothers or sisters deserve to be an afterthought,” she said. “And if it’s an imposition to transfer one of our brothers or sisters to their final rest, then the person who’s doing that transporting should be in a different business.”
Coleman’s family said they have forgiven the funeral home. They will lay Coleman to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.
“I was physically ill when I saw that, and I was very upset,” Lauren Price, of Veteran Warriors, said.
