   “ten thousand wreaths were transported from Maine aboard two tractor trailer trucks, accompanied by a convoy of Maine State Police troopers, Patriot Guard Riders, Rolling Thunder, Honor Ride, and veterans of the Vietnam war.”

   –

   A Christmas surge of community spirit second to none.

   Thanks and God bless to All involved who remind us all to Never Forget!

   Arlington Cemetery is the most sacred place I have ever visited. These pictures of the wreaths are inspiring. I only wish I had seen the convoy from Maine pass through Connecticut this past week.

   Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to the greatest Military ever conceived and assembled.

   My heartfelt thanks to all those who made this possible.

   Michelle,

   Thank you for the beautiful post. (Thanks Dave too).

   We were there especially to place a wreath on my friend Mary Lou Wade’s brother’s grave.

   Capt. Herbert C. Crosby was repatriated this year after being MIA in Vietnam since 1970. We buried his remains during a Memorial Day service, marking the occasion of what would have been his 60th birthday. Very appropriate for this young patriot, whose life was cut short all too soon.

   Thank you for helping your readers to remember that We Never Forget.

   How can anyone really say thank you? It is nice to know that some Americans still have pride and Honor. May God bless them and their efforts.

   Patriot Guard escorted and placed wreaths today at the National cemetary in Florence SC. It is my understanding that this act was repeated in every state throughout our great nation.

   God bless America. God bless our troops. and God bless these patriots who made these wreaths available.

    Blessings to all of you.

    We place over 200 wreaths at Long Island National Cemetery with the same attitude.

    We had members of the Boy Scouts, Patriot Guard Riders, Navy, Air Force, Marines at the 12:00PM EST ceremony.

    What an honor it was to perform the ceremony and to honor all of those in attendance.

    We have several Gold Star parents in attendance of the ceremony as well and they were honored accordingly.

    God Bless our Men & Women that serve this great nation!!!

    That’s a great video thanks for sharing MM. It is a shame that any of America’s finest has to die. But the least we can do is thank them and appreciate them for the sacrifice that they have given and continue to give.

    Thanks military people, and Merry Christmas.

    I am so glad I keep a box of tissues next to my desk here- please give a kleenex warning next time! And if you could, announce ahead of time where and when wreaths are going to be put on graves, I would love to be there next year.

    I went to Arlington Cemetery last year within a day of Christmas, in the rain. There was a section near the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier that had the wreaths. Even in the rain the wreaths gave an air of dignified celebration of the season and commemoration of the deceased.

    It is a fine thing being done here. “Bravo Zulu” to those involved.

    At the Riverside National Cemetery (colloquially called “Arlington West”) in California, my son and husband as part of the Civil Air Patrol participated in a similar ritual on Saturday. They weren’t allowed to lay wreaths on the graves because they didn’t have enough wreaths for every grave. But they did give honor and respect to those that are buried there. Maybe next year they can get a sponsor to help them get enough wreaths for all the fallen warriors that are there.

    My father is buried there, and it meant a great deal to my mother that they did it.
