Remember them by wearing a POW/MIA pin, bracelet, hat or shirt, or fly the POW/MIA flag. If you don’t have any of those, today might be a good day to purchase one so you have it. Just click on the above poster to go to the site for the POW/MIA National League of Families.

Yes he is. Boy, does he look good.
Below are two videos of the group’s reunion with family members. The quality’s not great since it was taken with a digital camera. Alex did the honors. The Flag Line you see in the videos was provided by men and women of the Maryland Chapter of the Patriot Guard Riders. I can tell you it was beautiful and emotional to watch our guys walk aroud the corner and through that flag line. PGR is a national organization made up of some amazing and dedicated Veterans and American Patriots. Their mission is to show honor and respect for those who serve and defend our nation, particularly the fallen. Upon request, they conduct Mission Rides consisting of motorycle escorts and flag lines for Veterans’ funerals and memorial services, as well as send-offs (deployments), welcome home ceremonies, and so much more. Members participate in these rides at their own expense, and I can tell you that parking at BWI is not cheap. I’m especially grateful to the members of the Maryland Chapter who showed up on extremely short notice. Please consider making a donation to either the Maryland Chapter or the national organization.

I hope you never need a pacemaker. Predsident Obama says maybe you’d be better off taking a “pain killer” instead of having the surgery.

Even thought it’s probably a waste of my time, I contacted my senators earlier to voice my opposition to the proposed healthcare legislation. Have you?
