Obama to meet with families of soldiers
President Barack Obama plans to meet privately with families of the 30 Americans killed in an International Security Assistance Force helicopter crash in eastern Afghanistan while supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
Obama and top Pentagon officials including Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen are attending today's dignified transfer ceremony for 38 U.S. and Afghan personnel killed on board a helicopter shot down in Afghanistan over the weekend.
Two planes carrying the remains landed at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware this morning, according to Pentagon spokesman Col. Dave Lapan.
Obama arrived at the air base at 12:30 p.m. on one of four helicopters carrying the president, his staff and accompanying reporters.
Panetta, Mullen and the chiefs of the Navy and Army were among the 11 senior military and Defense Department officials who also would be there for the dignified transfer ceremony, Lapan said.
Because the catastrophic nature of the crash made the remains difficult to identify, all were brought in more than 38 transfer cases to the United States, Lapan said. The Afghan remains will be returned to their families once identifications can be made.
The slain U.S. service members represent the worst single-incident loss of American life since the start of the Afghan war.

Also, the stock market gained back a little of its losses, but experts say don't get your hopes set too high.
