Welcome to this Memorial Day... "Meet the Press"
And here is a cemetery where America's war dead... are in eternal rest--
But enough on such an old, old story! Let's party!... Gangnam Style!
I knew someone would post that!
That is the first thing that pops in my head whenever I see Parade Magazine anywhere.
Well done sir, well done.

I photoshopped this the moment I saw the article lol

Let it be known though that it will stolen and used in the future in all Parade Magazine threads!
lols

Fascinating info. Thanks. One of the things I love about FR..I learn something new most every day..
didn;t this kind of thing happen at the Dem convention?
I don’t get article writers/editors who don’t just find a pic of the ship they need? I’m sure they could get a pic from a Navy website! instead some moron probably just googled “ship silhouette”.
