Personal Observance

As someone who was in the Pentagon that horrible day and suffered much loss I can certainly give you a first hand opinion and observations on this topic. But I will be brief.

The Ceremony yesterday was very solemn and tastefully done. Nothing splashy. The new Pentagon Memorial is extremely well done and should be visited if you have the opportunity. An idea borne of the families and friends of those lost.....and built with private donations and no Federal moneys.

You should all be proud of and support your military and first responders. They do a terrific job daily and are only properly recognized and thanked during events such as these. Shame.

God bless us all and our Service men and women in harms way.
