Curious if anyone can tell me why Cpl. Braun's casket was draped with what I believe was the CF flag and not the Canadian Flag?

Because chances are that if he only has one gong hanging off his CF's he hasn't been anywhere longer than 30 days.  Don't get me wrong, tours aren't the say all and end all of a person's level of competence, far from it.  Chances are you have an idea of the person's background that's...
