Xmas wreaths at Arilington

Hey Joe, I just report what I'm sent. The really true kudos go to Doug and the other men and women who give their valuable time and effort to make this happen.

As a side note, Doug's dad was severely wounded on Iwo Jima and was left for dead. Thankfully he survived.

Take care and to everyone in the Popasmoke family, have a great and safe holiday season. πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€
