decided to get off my a$$ and show my respect/support for those that have served for us. with the assistance of gerbing and and sun-ray i put down about 100 miles in below freezing temps yesterday to stand in a PGR flag line for Corey when he was returned home yesterday. it was a very emotional experience as Corey's mom walked our line and shook each of our hands and thanked us for being there and supporting Corey and her family.
