    Chilling Memories

    The most sacred sound is the calling of Roll Call when the final name is called and the silence that follows is so deafening.



    Freedom has never and will never be free.

    Been to too many services for fallen squadron mates.... Taps with a missing man formation at the funeral, The Flag presented to the widow... there is nothing so somber.

    Enlightening for me today, the number of fallen firefighters has outpaced all other services.
