Wizard, what a wonderful experience for your family and what a lovely tribute you've written here for these veterans. We watched the entire celebration on TV and my own Uncle who lives in Maryland was there, he was a bomber pilot in world war II. As you said its so sad and and I feel humiliating that this momument was 60 years later than it should have been. God Bless all the veterans those on the monument grounds and those in the heavens.
