re: #23 Shinyhead
A side note for vets and active duty I wanted to pass on, I just found out about.
If you are active duty or a vet you do not just get to put your hand over your heart and flag raising and such, but can salute instead.
Thanks Shinyhead. And I thought it was difficult to hold back the tears as I remembered the sacrifices made for the Republic for which it stands as I stood with my hand on my heart.
