Made this video today and will be laying some Christmas Wreaths on some graves over the next few days here at Jefferson Barracks. So many veterans have passed. My father and his brothers who served in WWII are gone now and I think of them over Christmas they were good men. Very best wishes to all of you and may you find peace. Thanks for watching.
