Go. Now. I have nothing more to say. Really, why are you still here? Go now.
I really wish I could have heard him speak it. I guess this will have to do. I wonder who his audience was? Hopefully not just Mrs. D.C.

Thanks for the kind words. But really, Lt. Bobo and the many heroes upon whose shoulders I ride ... they supply the words. And then the words are so inadequate.
We are blessed, my friend.
Happy Memorial Day.
P.S. I made the remarks to the church, as part of our service honoring fallen heroes. Take care.

Your words were both beautiful and inspirational. No offense was meant by the joke about who you made it to. I figured you made it to a large group. Really and I mean this thank you for your service.
I'm sure Mrs.DC heard the practice renditions.... and probably the one in church as well. Terrific writing, DC, I gave you a link in my Memorial Day post as well.
