National Purple Heart Recognition Day
We had a ceremony to honor "National Purple Heart Recognition Day" in Dunedin, Fl. yesterday about 10 miles south of my home near Baileys Bayou (actually the town is Holiday, Fl.----but most of us locals still like to be recognized as residents of Baileys' Bayou).
We had a few hundred folks attend along with some pretty special Purple Heart recipients. Check out the link below. http://www.tampabay.com/news/militar...cle1025748.ece I was in attendance, but did not participate in the event. I simply went to honor my former brothers-in-arms and fellow Purple Heart recipients who like myself were awarded this medal. SCOUTS OUT! Gimp
