I want to take a minute and thank the person who placed a flag on my lawn on Memorial Day. I saw the flag late in the afternoon and noticed that there were only three flags that I could see on the street. All three of us are veterans.

My neighbor said that he saw someone in a Jeep driving down the street planting the flags. I don’t know this patriotic person, so I can only reach him here: Thank you for recognizing me as a veteran on Memorial Day 2017. You made my day.
