hollyb - I thought they were lovely, too, and I felt warm and proud when I saw the image of the gentleman with the flag. I borrowed the Arlington image from their site, and I hope no one minds me helping myself on this occasion.
Saw a wonderful bit on the news about 106-year-old vet who fought in WWI when he was 15! (Lied and said he was 21.) He was Grand Marshall in a parade in Brooklyn today! He's the last of three WWI vets still living and the only one who went overseas. "The war to end all wars." God Bless'um.
Thanks, kiddo.
ReplyDeleteMy heartfelt thanks to all the veterans.
