" Thank You "
That was the message of the day
yesterday.
I'm wrung out
from the sheer emotion
of it.
Sure,
nice things happen every day
here in Waikiki
Parades here are commonplace
But yesterday,
the parade was for these guys
The "Go For Broke"
WWII Veterans of Hawaii
Men who fought fascism overseas
and prejudice at home,
Defeating them both
This month
they were awarded the
Congressional Gold Medal.
They were already
the most decorated unit
in US military history.
Even if you usually don't click on videos,
do watch the video below about the Vets
and about the day.
It was a beautiful day to say "Thank You"
to REAL HEROES!
Thank YOU for kindly visiting here.
It really means a LOT!
Warmly, cloudia
