Okay so I know its not Hump Day, but I missed Hump Day last week because I was celebrating the independence of this wonderful country at the pool! And I'm also a little bored today so I'm going to do last week's post today!!! Get excited!!!
In honor of last week being the 4th of July, I'm going with a military related post. There are no pictures with the article, but I'll do my best. Its the story of 6 Airmen that went down in 1965. The remains were finally rediscovered in 2010/2011. I love stories about our boys making it home, whether they are alive or not. It means that they are home and not left somewhere forgotten.
I do not how many people have been to Arlington National Cemetery, but there is the Tomb of the Unknowns or the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The tomb is in memory of fallen soldiers from World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.
Happy Belated 4th of July!
Until Next Time!
Lots of Love!!

I've been to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier a few times and the gravity of the changing of the guard watching over the tomb gives me chills every time. It's always nice to know that we never stop trying to bring our service men and women home even decades later.
ReplyDeleteMy senior year in high school our marching band took a trip to DC and played at several of the monuments and one of the biggest things I'll remember from that trip was getting to lay a wreath on the tomb with 3 other band members. It was amazing, yet sad. Definitely a memory I will never forget, though.
