Such truly exceptional people just reinforces the truth of how great the people of this nation are regardless of the clowns we have down in Washington.

Good man, 1957Buck.  Honor our fallen.

I see that another Jersey kid was killed last week ….. US Navy Aviation Boatswain’s Mate (Handling) Airman Apprentice Joseph Min Naglak, of West Windsor. He was hit by a propeller during flight operations on the deck of the USS George HW Bush. A nation's gratitude, and Prayers, to Joseph and his family.

One of my sons was in NYC today for another event …. the Tunnel To Towers 5k, that takes the route that NYFD Firefighter Stephen Siller ran with his equipment to get to the Twin Towers on 9/11, where he gave up his life trying to save others.

Gave them a police escort through Oceanport yesterday. Love working that detail every year as it is very humbling.

2 upcoming events are Wounded, Warrior Run Jackson Oct. 13 and Wreaths Across America Holmdel Vietnam Memorial Dec.15                                     The run for the fallen was very well attended as more names were added and called off. The Photos on The sides of the trailer started on one side and now almost fills up both sides.  Other photos show our setup and Yours truly and The helicopter in front of The Museum. The Memorial And wall of Honor for Vietnam Members is behind the Museum.   Along with Gold Star Mothers and Purple Heart  Memorials.   Make it a point to Visit The Site At one of the events or a Side Trip.  A Family member Sargent Ryan E. Doltz is memorialized on the Trailer and at The Run Lost In Iraq NJ National Guard 1 of 5 that lost their lives.
