SW: clarification
The phrase '''Transfer tubes''' is a euphemism was incorrectly believed to be the most recent [[propaganda]] term employed by the [[George Walker Bush]] Pentagon to describe the return of soldiers' remains from the [[War in Iraq]].[http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1067728207768&call_pageid=1038394944805&col=1038394]
Although the term ''Transfer tubes'' became widely reported, it was never used officially, and stems from a misunderstanding between a reporter and a military official.
