I wanted to wish everyone a happy Memorial Day. My thoughts are with those that have served our country and have given their lives. Eric joined the Sea Cadets a couple of months ago. He has been out shooting machine guns, rifles and pistols with the reserves. Some day I will get some pictures to post. <\/p>\n

Today he is on his way to Riverside National Cemetery to put flags on grave sites of those that passed away this past year and did not have any type of memorial service because there was no family to be there. It is sad to think that those that have valiantly served our country could simply be buried without anyone to say goodbye or remember what was done for our freedom. Thanks to the Sea Cadets for remembering those that seem to have been forgotten. <\/p>\n
