And then we can switch to the little building just off Generals Highway leading many years ago from say 301 to Annapolis, in your state. I lived in that area as I worked for many years at Westinghouse AeroSpace/Defense plant in Friendship MD..
Where French General Lafayette boarded as his troops came to the aid of our Revolutionary forces.
Was born and raised in Philly. So obviously, got a lot of the early history of the birth of our nation from that area as well.
Valley Forge, Washington Crossing. So many places that the young ones should be able to visit and absorb. Just what it took to give birth to this nation, through sacred honor, and blood. No response required. I sense where on the same wave length when it comes to the honor and sacrifices so many from those early days onward have committed to.
The travesty taking place in Charlotte NC, the past few days is like pissing on George Washington's grave.
