IN July went to a funeral at Arlington. Distant cousin of the LTC was Marine pilot WWII, Korea, Vietnam.
Most impressive ceremony I have ever seen
Ah, a Clinton shows up and says ‘there’s no evidence’, guess we’ll never know what really happened...
The next time you are in DC try to get to the Friday night ceremony at the Marine Corps Barracks at 8th and I. THE MOST goose bump phenomenal event I have ever been to. And when they begin to play the Marine Corps Hymn practically a third of the spectators stand up and you realize they are all- young and old - Marines. The first time I went all I could think was I could have gone my entire life and missed seeing it. Fortunately I didn’t. p.s. if you call your congress critter he/she could get you reserved premium seats for the event.
