In memory of the only " Sauve' " on The Wall.   A distance cousin.

"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived. GEN. Patton.
I know we all mourn for our friends , not only at this time , but for all time. Thank you all who serve and who have served.



TOUJOURS PRET

A nice rendition of "echo" taps.

FWIW:
This Wednesday is the graduation ceremony at the Air Force Academy.  The Air Force Thunderbirds will not be there because of that evil Republican sequestration.   ::)

In their place an organization has stepped forward and will do the fly over with vintage aircraft.  The formation has been buzzing the house most of the afternoon practicing.  A B24 Liberator, 3 P51 Mustangs, a F4 Corsair, and a SBD Dauntless Dive Bomber.  Way cool.

God Bless.

OBTW, what's the phrase?

If you can read, thank a teacher,
If you can read in English, thank an American Soldier.
