Wreaths Across America is an organization that relies on sponsorships to place wreaths on veterans' headstones. They are currently short the sponsorships necessary, and nearly half of Arlington National Cemetery graves may be bare this holiday season............... It's only $15 and let us know here YOU did !
Would YOU please donate a wreath...........I DID !

Great Cause - In for one in memory of Michael L. Selves who I worked with as a US Army Captain with Army Computer Systems Command in Fall Church, VA. He retired Army as LTC and was killed at the Pentagon in the 9-11 Terrorist Attack. HOOAH.
Done.
Semper Fidelis to my fallen Marine brothers and sisters.
I thought most here would get on board with this for just $15...Please DO donate for a wreath.
As each wreath is set the volunteer says the fallen warrior's name -
A person dies twice: once when they take their final breath, and later, the last time their name is spoken.
I did one for my father. @Alan Merklin thanks for letting us know about this.
Thank you all... keep this wreath buying going for our Vets!!

Bump !
Apparently, they met their goal and ALL graves will get a wreath --- thanks goes to FOX Network for filling the gap.
Mom and Dad both being remembered at ANC. Thanks for the input.
