Rumsfeld, perhaps in a last-ditch effort to make nice and keep his job, has reversed policy and will now personally sign KIA letters to the families of the deceased. It's about damn time. Sure, he's a busy man and there are far too many casualties, but as one principally responsible for getting us into this mess, signing the letters is a small way for him to assume some responsibility and do the right thing by the families of those who sacrificed their lives.

Stars and Stripes has the story about the change in policy, including Rummy's statement and several quotes from irate families who received "your son is dead" letters with a stamped signature at the bottom.
