Honoring Veterans

I found the following update on foxnews.com
Patrick Best, after serving with the Army for two tours in Iraq, brought home an American flag that once flew over his base near Mosul, but he wasn’t sure what to do with it — until he heard about Ed Jordan.
Jordan, who served in the Marines in the 1950s, [...]

War on Terror - Because a War by any other name is political gobbledygook
