I went to Walmart this morning, and they were having a program to honor all the vets. They had the entrance filled with benches and speakers and vets from the local VFW, the Mayor and Chief of Police The front walls were covered with pictures of fallen soldiers. when it was over this elderly gentleman played taps. It was absolutely beautiful, not a dry eye in the house, including mine. I had no idea Walmart did this. I certainly feel a little different about them this afternoon. Do any other do this sort of thing?

AND TO ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SERVE OUR COUNTRY, THANK YOU!

Yes I'm shouting.
