I just came back from a wonderful rememberance at our local elementary school. It was the first one, organized by the principal, who is an Air Force brat like myself. I cried throughout the whole damn thing. Part of the celebration included relatives in uniform in the audience and a slide show of pictures of the kids’ family members, young and old. Cards our kids sent to Arlington cemetery last year that were placed on graves on Memorial Day so moved a Vietnam vet who saw them that he had a friend serving in Afghanistan send our school a flag that flew there. That was raised today. Very nice.

Thank you, Dad, and Bullet and all our cc veterans and active military.
