Reading this on BBC news site and apparently over 30,000 people have joined a Facebook campaign calling for their licence to be revoked and for the bar to be boycotted.
A possible overreaction or understandable given the circumstances?
I wasn't aware that bars/pubs did or even could turn away men in uniform but if the bar has experienced trouble in the past then perhaps you could understand the policy.
The bar owner has already apologised and said that staff had no idea that a funeral was taking place.
Seems like an incredibly sad story all round
