3. Thank you for posting this, vmaus.

I should add attribution to this video, which I neglected to do.
The song, "Prayer to St Peter" is performed here by Edwin McCain on the CD Messenger, though I understand it was written by John Gorka based on words from an anonymous poem written during WWII.
Check out Edwin at

Thanks also to those pictured and the photographers whose work was used to put it together.

Wish I had thought to do that before I uploaded :-)

4. Truly an outstanding and moving tribute...

I first saw this Veteran's Day tribute on the Kerry blog site http://blog.johnkerry.com/2006/11/thanks_to_our_heroes_our_veter.html and was so touched by it that I was compelled to post it here immediately...
