If you ever find yourself wondering why you watch this show, it's because of this episode. Although there are many good episodes in the WW, but I have to rate this one at the top. No matter your party preference, the theme and story line regarding the death of a homeless veteran and receiving a full honors military funeral, should hit home with every American. The writers did a great job of projecting the struggles and treatment that some of our veterans endure.

The funeral scene switching back and forth to the choir singing is gripping. The connection with the main story line along with Mrs. Landinham's back story and tied in with Christmas is just brilliant. Well done !!! Please visit the DOD website or search for veteran assistance for further information on veteran affairs.
