Emma Taylor and her good friend KK.
It was a very touching program. There were many Vets there and they were asked to stand. Then the anthem for each branch of the military was played and Vets from that particular branch stood up. Some were very elderly and even in a wheelchair, but they proudly stood for their anthem. They were very emotional as well. We can't thank our Vets enough!
I drove by Veterans Park, which isn't far from our house. They also had a service yesterday morning.
The flags fly every day at this park.
There was also a dedication of this F-105 Thunderchief. It was just recently added to this park.
It serves as a monument to one of the POWs who lives in Tupelo. He was in captivity for six years. I can't imagine the amazing strength and courage that took!
A big THANK YOU to all of our Vets!
