First, I apologize for this not being firearms related, but i feel i should still share. I was shown this on another forum i frequent and thought most of you might appreciate it. Hope you have some tissues nearby...

Hi Otahyoni,

My husband and I had the honor to witness the return of the remains of a soldier that was lost in the Pacific during WWII to his final resting place outside of Monon IN. I would say the rifles fired over the grave makes the post firearm related.

We should not enjoy the fruits of sacrifice by forgetting those that made the final sacrifice. Rest in peace Major Beck, we remember.
