Arlington National Cemetery at Christmas
 

And now for a "feel good" news story, a gentleman from Maine has donated wreaths every year since 1992 to be laid in Arlington National Cemetery & the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. What a beautiful sight! I received the pic first in an email and I did "snopes" it (like I do everything), so I'll just include the Snopes link to the story: http://www.snopes.com/photos/military/wreaths.asp (I hope the pic link works below, if not, you can see it at Snopes)

Beautiful picture

Very touching.
This sort of news does not get into the new enough.

Another story was did not make the news:
Several years ago the founder of the Outback (a SAE) filled up two C-17s'
and opened up a branch in Afghanistan. Volunteers from ever other branch helped serve.
