It was a privilege to stand and honor PFC Lucas Starcevich on Friday. He has made the ultimate sacrifice for our
country.
While at the cemetery, I recognized an activist of our
veteran’s funerals at Camp Butler on the side.
I whispered to Grace (Inter-veterans Burial Affairs) to join us in our
flag line and she eagerly did. Grace
has honored more veterans at Camp Butler than I could ever catch up in my
lifetime. I thought you should know we
had a guest in our flag line. But then,
we are all guests of the family.
I now have a forefinger turning black and blue from
the addition of an extra grommet in my flag to remember the mission by.
