This is an image I took back on September 9th while showing my wife's German relatives our Capital. Alpha said in an earlier post about, "As our country (The USA) is on the brink of a war that few people understand, I think it is important that we all spend the time to decide if this is something we really want." As our media and government blur the meaning of war, so are the men and women that serve in them. Blurred is the monument as is the reasons that our leaders lead us into war. To all of those that have served, especially those of my friends and my brother who served in Viet Nam, From the bottom of my heart, Thank You. For you are the true heroes of my country. You gave without thanks, but you served with Honor. Again I say, Thank You. Magick Michael aka zhounder
