Thank you, click!  Those Marines really know how to "do" a ceremony, don't they?

John has seen this live and in action.  He was awed.  I am looking forward to visiting Pat and taking a trip to the capital to see these sights.

I would love to see this also.

I would also like to say Thank You to our military and any vets that may be reading this.

It was a special event.  I also watched the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier.  Seeing that place is really great.  It shows, by the number of graves, that freedom is costly.  Just as our freedom from sin was very costly, our Savior died for us to give us life.

Don I served in the Air Force for 11 1/2 years.  It was during the Viet Nam era.  A most difficult time for the military.  I salute you.  Vern
