It said he had “listened attentively to the stories about the lives and heroism of each of the young women, felt the families' pain, and heard their requests and demands for an investigation into the events and for the commemoration of their daughters.”</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>“The Prime Minister answered their questions and said that matters would be thoroughly checked and that the lessons would be learned at all levels, including in the intelligence, operations, military and diplomatic spheres.”</p>\n<p><b>-----END-----CNN.SCRIPT-----</b></p>\n<p></p>\n<p><b>--KEYWORD TAGS--</b></p>\n<p>ISRAEL HAMAS WAR GAZA PHOTOS FEMALE SOLDIERS HOSTAGES </p>\n<p></p>\n<p><b>--MUSIC INFO---</b></p>\n<p></p>

ISRAEL: AKKO: BURIAL OF NAPOLEON BONAPARTE SOLDIERS
TAPE_NUMBER: EF99/1229 IN_TIME: 13:07:22 // 20:55:31 LENGTH: 01:58 SOURCES: IBA RESTRICTIONS: No Access Israel/Internet FEED: VARIOUS (THE ABOVE TIME-CODE IS TIME-OF-DAY) SCRIPT: English/Nat Four soldiers from the army of Napoleon Bonaparte have been buried in Israel - two centuries after they died in a French bid to control the Middle East. The men were killed during a two month siege of the port city of Acre - then part of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. The ceremony was attended by French soldiers and diplomats, who laid wreaths as a mark of respect. It was a poignant salute to old comrades who had fought for Napoleon and fallen two centuries ago. The skeletons of the four were laid to rest just outside the walled Old City of Acre in northern Israel, where Napoleon's army spent two months trying to take the city from the Turks. Gold buttons found on the skeletons confirmed the date of their death in 1799. The buttons, engraved with the symbol of Napoleon's army, were the only part of their military uniforms intact. The fact that the head of one soldier was missing suggested that he had been taken prisoner by the Turks. The defenders cut off the heads of French soldiers during the siege and displayed them on the walls of the city. The bodies had been discovered in 1991 - but had spent the last eight years at the centre of a diplomatic wrangle between France and Israel over who should rebury the bodies. But that was forgotten in Tuesday's ceremony. SOUNBITE: (English) "A feeling of remembrance... because these people were Frenchmen, they had come such a long way, leaving friends for years. We do not know what kind of state of mind they were in, but certainly they felt a little lost so far from their shores and we will pay homage to them and their courage." SUPER CAPTION: Jean-Noel de Bouillane de Lacoste, French Ambassador The soldiers remains were buried alongside that of their old commander, General Louis Caffarelli, who was killed in the battle.

So he being a brother, I'm here."&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>Through Facebook and other social media outlets, word got out quick about Brooks' passing. The community of the Marines, and the community in the state of Maine, proved that no one is ever alone.&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>"It really truly is amazing and it goes back to the testament of the brotherhood of the various service members and the various services and the understanding that being willing to put your life on the line for others, for folks that you may never meet, or never have met, cements a bond with folks. To be able to, even if you've never met them, to be able to know that you had something in common."&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>Being a veteran of the Marine Corps creates a rare bond that is truly one of a kind.&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>"Being a Marine is being a brotherhood. We're all brothers. I may not like you. In fact, I may think you're the worst person I've ever met in my life, but you're still my brother. So you're in the eagle, globe and anchor. You are my brother or my sister, and that's forever."&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>Many of the people that spoke and put on the ceremony, never met Brooks but see it as an honor to be a part of any veteran's service.&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>"One of the biggest frustrations is the fact that I have the opportunity to hear about folks that I know I would have truly enjoyed meeting, sitting down with over a cup of coffee, but being able to honor them in this time, to be able to preside over the committal, to be able to be with them as their remains are put away for one last time and placed is truly amazing. It's overwhelming."&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>Chaplain Dow mentions the power in the presence of people reinforces the fact that every veteran has an outlet for support. &lt;/p>\n&lt;p>"There's too many veterans of all the branches that are taking their life and that's been a push of mine, whenever I talk with folks, whether it's veterans or currently serving or family members, is to remind them that they aren't alone. There's always somebody that they can reach out to."&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>Keenan Mills, WABI TV 5 News, Augusta&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>&lt;b>--KEYWORD TAGS--&lt;/b>&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>MAINE MILITARY VETERAN MARINE CORPS FUNERAL FALLEN SOLDIER BURIAL COMMUNITY&lt;/p>\n&lt;p>&lt;/p>
