Memorial Day, 2009

in Lake Bluff

Lots of uniforms.

From Lake Bluff, there were police officers, firemen, Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts.

From our military, there were soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen.

And from both were the members of Post 510 who founded our famous parade.

But if you ask them, our Memorial Day event is just as significant.

The Boy Scouts of Troop 42 raised our flag and then lowered it to half-mast.

The Cub Scouts of Pack 42 saluted and watched so that they could continue the tradition.

These select photos are presented in the order they were taken.

At the bottom is a link to the album with all of my photos from this day.

Thank God there have always been Americans willing to die for America.
