Nice articles and lots of photos.
Ernie was part of the color guard!
I wish I had been there.
Thank you all to the brave men and women who serve in the armed forces.

This very special event was perfect! Thank you DisneyLand for honoring these two heroes! Hopefully a door has opened and there will be more of these awesome moments at Town Square Flag Pole. Our nation needs these inspiring tributes. Ernie was on vacation & very ill, yet came in when Disney called. There will be pix & videos on fb.

Wow! Thanks for the link. Brought tears to my eyes. And it WAS great that they gave him the flag.

Ktulu, Ernie gives you much credit due to the fb you so kindly & quickly set up for him, & to all who joined. Disney read, listened. Let's hope they continue this positve path.
