Thank You...

This is something I miss about Boy Scouts. I am thankful that Tyler had a few years of this tradition, placing flags on the graves at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery to honor the men and women having served our country.  I hope he always remembers. Jefferson Barracks is so very close. We have witnessed many funeral processions. We watched  as Michael Blassie returned home from Arlington National Cemetery, having been buried in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We watched the Air Force Jets as they flew over the grave site at the cemetery, one of them peeling away in the Missing Man Formation, a final tribute. I think we will visit there today.
