Drue_Down Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 COINS LEFT ON TOMBSTONES While visiting some cemeteries you may notice that headstones marking certain graves have coins on them, left by previous visitors to the grave. Well, here is a purported story, and I think it's a good one! These coins have distinct meanings when left on the headstones of those who gave their life while serving in America's military, and these meanings vary depending on the denomination of coin. A coin left on a headstone or at the grave site is meant as a message to the deceased soldier's family that someone else has visited the grave to pay respect. Leaving a penny at the grave means simply that you visited. A nickel indicates that you and the deceased trained at boot camp together, while a dime means you served with him in some capacity. By leaving a quarter at the grave, you are telling the family that you were with the solider when he was killed. According to tradition, the money left at graves in national cemeteries and state veterans cemeteries is eventually collected, and the funds are put toward maintaining the cemetery or paying burial costs for indigent veterans. In the US, this practice became common during the Vietnam war, due to the political divide in the country over the war; leaving a coin was seen as a more practical way to communicate that you had visited the grave than contacting the soldier's family, which could devolve into an uncomfortable argument over politics relating to the war. Some Vietnam veterans would leave coins as a "down payment" to buy their fallen comrades a beer or play a hand of cards when they would finally be reunited. The tradition of leaving coins on the headstones of military men and women can be traced to as far back as the Roman Empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nappydugout Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Hazard was trying to get the ball back as his team was losing a knockout game against Swansea City. A native of Belgium, Hazard earns $200,000 per week playing in the English Premier League for Chelsea. The ball boy, Charlie Morgan, a Swansea fan, had Tweeted earlier in the night that he had been called in to work at the game and used hashtags to insinuate that he would delay the game, saying he was "Needed for time wasting" — the semi-legal practice of not giving the ball back to the opposition in an attempt to run the clock.
