COL (Ret) Kenneth Bradford Facey, USA, WWII / Korea / Vietnam Veteran, of Martinez, GA, was honored in his hometown area by the PGR on 30, 31 OCT 09 (see link below for more details).
His family has graciously invited PGR to stand in his honor as he is laid to his final Hero's rest on the hallowed grounds of Arlington National Cemetery (ANC) on 26 April, 2010 at approximately 1300 hours from the ANC Administration Building.
Due to economic considerations, many of his family and friends will NOT be able to attend the services at ANC, and I have told his wife, Faye, that PGR will be there to represent not only the missing friends and family, but all of a grateful America - grateful for another Hero who was willing to risk his all to keep us safe.
