We held our annual Memorial Day Rally when we hold signs with specific names of heroes we’ve known, neighbors, friends, and family members. 

Above, Earnie, a Vietnam Veteran,  holds a flag in honor of his son Tyler who is an Army Green Beret, currently in Afghanistan, and Dan, a Vietnam Veteran, salutes while we sing the National Anthem.  Dan’s son is a US Marine, currently in Afghanistan. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all our troops and their families.

Thanks to all who came out and made it happen. We will never forget our American heroes who gave up their tomorrows so that we could enjoy our todays.

Another outstanding turnout of patriotic Americans showing public pride and support for our noble servicemen and women. 

Highlights included a visit by David Peavy of CBS and WPHT 1210AM radio.  David works promotions for the Chris Stigall show heard every morning.  You can see him on the left holding the “Navy Seals Rock” sign.

Every rally is like a parade, we form a magnificent wall of red, white, and blue representing all that is good about America.  At noon we sing the National Anthem and say a prayer for our troops. 

We consist of veterans, military family members, and regular citizens.  This week I was proud to have my son-in-law Rick join us, he held the flag at the end.  Thanks to all who made it happen.  See you next week at the corner of High St and Market St.

THANK YOU TROOPS!   THANK YOU MILITARY FAMILIES!  OUR TROOPS ARE OUR GREATEST PATRIOTS.

We were honored to have two active duty soldiers join us at our Christmas Eve rally.  Greg Kosh, USMC, just returned from his 2nd tour in Afghanistan and John Paul Snook, US Army, also an Afghanistan veteran.  Both are young officers, captains, and both are local.  We thank them and their buddies for all they do for us. They are our greatest patriots.

Happy Birthday America! Our rallies are always full of red, white, and blue.

At the end we sang the Star Spangled Banner and said a prayer of thanks for our troops.

A group of youngsters and teens from Bible Baptist Church joined us as they were passing flyers for summer Bible school. They looked great in their costumes and many members of their church are in the military.

Have a great 4th of July! We are blessed to be Americans. God watch over all who serve to keep our country strong and free.

One of the benefits of being retired military is being able to visit our bases. We went to Fort Dix yesterday to shake hands with America’s finest. We are very proud and grateful for their service.

God bless our troops, protect them and their families. As they fight the fight for freedom, they are not alone. We stand behind them.

Outstanding rally! Huge crowd. Thanks to the patriotic riders who came from all over to show public support for our troops and their families.

At the end we sang the National Anthem and said a prayer for our troops.

THANK YOU TROOPS
THANK YOU MILITARY FAMILIES
GOD BLESS AMERICA

Thanks to everyone who came out and made it happen. See you next Saturday.

My daughter married her high-school sweetheart last night. She never looked more beautiful. It was a great wedding.

May God bless their marraige and may they always be as happy and in love as they were last night.

Lance Corporal Andrew Bowser, USMC, recently returned home from Afghanistan. Andrew, age 24, graduated from Bishop Shanahan HS (Downingtown, PA) in 2005. In 2008, he joined the Marines and got married. He and his wife Holly never got to take a honeymoon. He spent 6 months in Afghanistan and got home on Memorial Day weekend (he was away for 9 months total). He finally got a chance to take his wife for a long overdue honeymoon. They have 2 kids (1-yr and 2-yrs old). They were greeted with a flag line at the airport and given a motorcycle escort to the Marine Corps League in Downingtown for a surprise welcome home party. His father is a Vietnam Veteran and his wife prayed the rosary for her Marine son everyday.

WELCOME HOME! THANK YOU AND HOLLY SO MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE!

Nick and I went to New York to see Yankee Stadium. The Yankees are very supportive of our military.

They are only team that lets active duty military into the games for free. We met an Air Force Officer with his son and an Army soldier, home from Afghanistan, was there with his daughter.
