RP Members how many of you'll be involved in Veteran Day Parades or other activites celebrating Veterans Day?

Let us know what you're doing and where throughout the country on Veteran Day?

I'll be playing with the Hickory Wind Band on Friday, 11 November 2016 at the Delmar Fair Grounds (See the flyer above) in Delmar, CA Yes, I'm flying back to Calfornia for this event on Veterans Day!

Be sure and share some personal updates and pictures after Veterans Day! It great to capture these moments on RallyPoint and for the future generations of veterans, retirees, and active duty members to see!

I am still on Reserve duty overseas, but I look forward to joining the events in Central Ohio for Veterans day when I return next year.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs - Yes, a difficult loss in the world series but as Cubs fans and Cleveland fans are used to saying, there is always next year.
Congrats to the long suffering Cubs and their fans!

LTC John Shaw - I actually never thought I would see them win a World Series in my life time. I've been going to Wrigley Field since I was about 6 or 7 years old - it was a long time for me of 52 years and unfortunately my Dad at 85 just missed it with his passing on October 7, 2016. Think of all the fans that never got to experience what happen last night in the history of the sport. Now who is the next team to that will go for 108 years before another win?

Thursday-Friday and Friday-Saturday we have given away all our rooms in our B&B to vets, retirees and active service members (we had a big waitlist so we added a second day). Part of this program:

This part of the country appreciates us. All the schools have Veteran appreciation ceremonies and I have two grandsons that want me to be there. My little podunk has Saturday free lunch for Vets and AD.
