A Veteran Speaks…
My son’s thoughts, as he was listening to Taps, on the radio, this Memorial Day. Lee, remembers when as a young Boy Scout, in his Scout uniform, that he and his Troop went to Jefferson Barracks St.Louis, MO., to put American Flags, on the grave of each Fallen Solider.
The above being done,and not knowing “THEN” what, the future would hold, that in just a few short years, he would be wearing a Navy Uniform, aboard the, CV61 USS Ranger – The Flag Ship of the Admiral of the 7th Fleet.
Lee said,” Brings me to earlier this week, getting out our American Flag, to run up the pole for, Memorial Day, because, I know I am a Proud American, and I Love My Country”.
