Honoring Those Who Protect America








First of all, I want to thank Mr. Tony Sarbanes for taking the time, (once again) to put this Memorial Day Event together each year as well as the many service men and women who also take the time to gather and allow us to give thanks for all that they do and or have done.

Hundreds of people gathered yesterday to thank our men and women who serve our country allowing us the freedoms we so enjoy. Not to get political but I think Andy Harris said it best. "America is still the best country in the world."

Thanks to the many local Bikers who came to this event again this year. Some served in our Armed Forces, some did not. While this event seemed to have far more people in attendance this year than last year, while it was extremely hot, it's always worth the one hour out of every Memorial Day to take the time to give back and thank our Troops, some giving the ultimate sacrifice.

Why does Tony Sarbanes have such a temper in private?
