Old Gloryous

Last night there was a program at the Vietnam War Memorial Replica Wall behind the Mall that honored Veteran's from WWII who fought in the South Pacific. Grandpa Dille was honored and given a Medal and a Quilt of Valor. We're sure proud of our Veteran's!
Here's a section of the display
Here's the medals they were getting ready to present
Grandpa receiving his medal
Proud Hero!
POW/MIA Ceremony
Each item on the table represents something associated with POW/MIA soldiers. There is a hat for each branch of the military.
Afterwards, we took Grandpa to dinner and gave him his Father's Day/Birthday present
We gave dad his Father's Day present too....
Oh, and Happy Flag Day!!! (tomorrow)
