This morning at the end of our church service, a young man that graduated from high school last spring and joined the marines was home on leave and was part of a flag ceremony. He went forward to present "battle flags" (American flags that have flown over battle fields in Afghanistan or Iraq) to the family of one of our members that is serving in Afghanistan.
Our Hero came in unannounced and surprised his wife, young daughter and his mother-in-law. He then proceeded to present a battle flag to each one of them. Needless to say, there weren't any dry eyes after witnessing the reunion of a soldier and his family. I just pray to God that his family will NEVER have to have a single flag presented to them.
