"Last Friday I had the pleasure of sitting with Staff Sergeant William Stuart Brown, U.S. Army, WWII, Atlantic Theater, Normandy, D-Day, to enjoy a nice breakfast at Layton's 16th Street. It was a true pleasure and an incredibly humbling experience. Mr. Brown is a resident of Ocean City and has a new banner flying proudly at 2nd Street. I can not tell you how enjoyable this was for me! Moments like these are truly therapeutic after a tough start to the season. I could've listened to Mr. Brown the entire day. His wisdom, passion and humility were all bundled together in a positive attitude that was absolutely addictive. Words can not express how appreciative I am for people like Mr. Brown and the sacrifices they have made. Staff Sergeant Brown was quick to thank ME for my service and wish ME a safe tour. I was briefly confused and taken back by his words. I could only chuckle and shake my head as I exclaimed, "Thank you Sir...for everything!" Happy Memorial Day. "

This is definitely a beautiful picture too. Thanks to both of you.
Thanks to all our Veterans.
Thanks to our local LEO's and emergency personnel/staff.
Most don't know or understand the work each of you do is very important to all of us! Thanks!
God Bless you for sharing this heart warming.
You know, we can learn a lot from these conversations and should have a lot more of them before these people pass away. Their wisdom comes from actual experience rather than book learning. They're invaluable to our society, yet many don't receive the respect they deserve. Imagine if every day, you picked one senior to sit down with and have a conversation, you would learn volumes about the "TRUE" history of our country rather than the common core liberalese that poisons minds and twists the events of our past. Senior citizens are some of the most valuable keepers of our history we have and they should be honored and revered, not ignored!
Agreed 11:08!
