I just flippid to C-span, a few minutes before noon. C-span is showing the people coming through the rotunda.

I Saw Paul wolfowitz...accompanied by a Brig Gen.....and a young, adorable, crew cutted Marine Sgt. And then I saw, the Marine Sgt was on crutches, with no hands, his arms still bandaged. The Gen held his crutches for the Marine, so that he could render a salute to President Reagan.

I'm married to a retired soldier. My Daddy lost his right hand in a work accident. And I've known two Army Generals who served long after they lost legs in Viet Nam. I can't tell you how emotional this sight was for me.

I thought that was Wolfowitz! I believe that was a Lance Corporal and you could feel the respect flowing through him as he rendered his salute. A very touching moment. I am also impressed by the many children passing by and seeing their parents explain to them what they are seeing. The changing of the guard every half hour is also moving.

C-SPAN is doing a great job showing the endless line pass by. There is no commentary and no news crawl on the bottom of the screen; it's the channel of choice for me. If at all possible, catch the replay of Rick Santorum's Senate Republican Committee tribute to our beloved Ronnie. Ed Meese, Peggy Noonan, James Miller, Richard Perle, and Michael Deaver were on his panel. You can replay it here: http://www.c-span.org/ Pass the word.

The tears of pride are streaming down this retired Marine's face as I read this. I need to stay in my cube for awhile.

Semper Fi, Marine. Thank you for your service to our country and Corps!

RIP President Reagan
