Wreaths Across America

I stole this from Devil Dog Marines. The video is about 7 min. If you are a crier you may need a tissue.

Arlington Project

This is a link to the Wreaths Across America website. On that site click on Video On Demand and watch the video that was made of about the Arlington Wreaths Project. Beautiful video and song that I'd never seen or heard before.

At the bottom of the page is a link to a PGR escort. http://www.wreaths-across-america.org/escort.html
Man, I wish I could go on this... Wonder if my boss would miss me.
