"Those who fail to remember history..." I hear people talking/writing about not dwelling on this kind of "stuff," but it's exactly what our fellow citizens need to see. I'm so grateful to all who have fallen in the line of duty. ~~~Blessings~~~
Gracie- Hopefully our past motivates us to make a better future
Odat- I remember standing in Arlington National about twenty years ago when I took the 2nd shot. I didn't know a single soldier who was buried there, but I was overcome with emotion and wept for them all.

Sandee- The ultimate price
Oswegan- Thanks, there scaned from photos I took twenty years ago in D.C.
