I'm not gonna detail this, but y'all have heard this, and this is an American Expression. That's all I want to say. I was really moved by this, and I hope others appreciate it as well.

I still feel like I owe all those veterans more than I can ever live up to.

And, yes, our member(s) from Tacoma, WA can take a bow for one of theirs in this video. We live in such a great country.

Thanks for that. And accolades to the ole' timer for his dedication. I may need to stop there some time and thank him personally.

By the way, do you know there is such a great shortage of "real" buglers/trumpeters in the military services that most of the military funerals are recordings with a "poser" filling in.

Saw the story on one of the news programs a year or two ago.
