Went to Riverside National Cemetery today to give my thanks and respect to all that served. Went a day early to beat the crowd. I go there every year. It was a expressive of awe. More then 90,000 flags were placed, just a sea of them. Got a photo of this old timer, just wonder what his thoughts are.4631746318 More stuff, went to this today. 46332 46333 Never seen so many bikes at one time, it was great. And gave me a warm feeling.

Memorial Day is not about honoring our Veterans, that’s what Veterans Day is about. It is not about BBQ or the start of summer in my family and has never been. It has always been a somber time to reflect on those that gave their life for our country.
One of those many that gave all was my uncle Navy ENS George W. McJimsey a Navy fighter pilot KIA December 14, 1944 in the Philippines. To honor him and others that gave all for you and me I post the following videos.
