Veteran Day

[Adam Helmer]

Dan,

I am a veteran and a civil war reenactor. Our Bucktail Company has a firing party and we did a rifle salute for a veteran at 10:00 a.m. in the town cemetery. At 11:00 a.m. nearby we fired our rifled muskets with blank rounds in our town Veterans' Memorial Park.

At church last Sunday they had a Veterans' Memorial Service. Out of 25 worshippers present, the minister asked all veterans to stand. There were only three of us; one Marine, one Navy and one Air Force.
