Thank you for that post, Baldguy (although it made me cry)! I'm so proud of the turnout from Folsom residents. Wish I could have been there.
Sorry gb, but watch this:
We live in a really great place.

My hubby was there at the folsom event, but I couldn’t make it. Thanks for the footage....it choked me up.
Yes, we DO live in a really great country.
As for the grief of the Mote family....there are no words. I wish them all the best.

Whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount "up to and including their life".
That is HONOR, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

PHOTOS: Motorcade in honor of fallen El Dorado Marine
Several hundred turned out at McClellan Airfield Thursday and untold numbers more paid their respects along a motorcade route for Staff Sgt. Sky Mote who was killed on duty in Afghanistan Aug. 10.

I was walking in to work today, and noticed a truck that had the following words written on them: "God bless Srgt Mote, RIP".
I teared up & thought, Amen & amen!
What a wonderful display of love from our community.
