I know most of the folks I saw were volunteers. So nice they share their time for others. Some of the outfits they wore were wool and hot in the summertime too. Got to give them lots of credit for that! We've been in the mid 70's to low 80's here this week and it has felt wonderful. Still I hear complaints that it's not hot enough for those with swimming pools. The water isn't warm enough. I'm ok with that one though, the older I get the more the heat tends to wipe me out. Hope you both are enjoying some nice weather where you are at.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-77729533014589589042017-07-30T00:37:27.795-04:002017-07-30T00:37:27.795-04:00I didn't know about the soldiers' pardons!...I didn't know about the soldiers' pardons!

There's much to be said for the civility of those times. <br /><br />Here's a link to something I posted (copied from General Hal Moore's book) back in 2010 about the surrender. I hope you like it. https://mevely317.blogspot.com/2010/05/inspired-by-hero.html<br />Mevely317https://www.blogger.com/profile/14786988262452989091noreply@blogger.com
