  • Honor flight veterans from Alaska stop in Arlington, VA to quietly watch a promotion ceremony for an Air Force officer getting his pin for the rank of Colonel.
    The event was in front of Netherlands Carillon. The vets were coming over from the Marine Corps War Memorial Iwo Jima.

    Absolutely love all US Military Veterans and their HONOR flights, especially the United States Marines !
    I spoke with a Veteran yesterday and at the end of the conversation, he was in tears. . . and so was I.
    I apologized to him thinking that I had offended him in something I said about him and/or Veterans.
    Jack said:
    "No Michael. Your words of kindness about us Veterans touched my heart more than you know.
    Why don't more Americans love, support and respect us like you do ?"
    I was speechless and in tears because Jack was 100% right. We can do better Americans !
    We can all look Veterans in the eye, shake their hand and tell them: "THANK you and WELCOME HOME."
    Great video Emily - thank you for posting it ! It's a great reminder to all of us about American Veterans !

      Hey friends ! Let's remember the family's and our military members in prayer who are still in the military currently or
      they are retired, or they lost a family member or a friend who was serving in the military. I ask because US military
      suicides are currently at 22 a day - one a day is one too many. We don't know what they saw and experienced while
      they were serving. Our prayers can make a difference in their lives and in their family's lives and homes !
      If you are so inclined, a group of volunteers place Christmas wreaths at the gravesites of our fallen Heroes. It's a
      special way to honor these American heroes AND their family's who deeply miss their loved family member. I know
      they do this at the Arlington National Cemetery and other military cemetery's around the country. Thank you Emily
      for all you do to encourage our fighting men and women in the military - every chance you get !
      My Jr. High and HS wrestling coach was a United States Marine and was deployed to Vietnam many years ago. Mac
      was a Mortar man and "Agent Orange" finally caught up with him and he passed away 21 May 2017. RIP my mentor,
      coach & friend !
      All gave some - some gave ALL !

      It is right next to it. Like 50 feet away. I should have turned the camera to show that!
