Honoring our Veterans

For nearly two decades I photographed the annual Memorial weekend service at Oakwood Cemetery.    It has always been one of my favorite  events because the Lansingburgh Veterans, working with the Boy Scouts,  plant flags next to the grave sites of veterans.  This year I went not to photograph, but to assist and I was honored they welcomed my help.  It  is a fitting tribute and is exactly what Memorial  Day should  be about.  Thank you to the veterans  and the scouts who do this.  They should  feel very proud of their efforts.
