Thanks from me, too. I had the privilege to watch a moving tribute to our veterans this past weekend at Soldier Field, home of the Chicago Bears. The half time activity consisted of the awarding of a Purple Heart to a sgt. wounded in Afghanistan, a reinduction of around 20 military personnel, and the best rendition of God Bless America I have ever heard, as sung by the USNA Women's Glee Club.
The tens of thousands of fans that had just finished booing our team for their poor performance was on its feet for the duration of the ceremonies for a continuous ovation. When the Bears returned to the field, the booing resumed. The game didn't go so well, but the weather was great! And I was proud to be a part of the honoring of our military veterans.
