Thanks for the kind thoughts friends - they are appreciated.

After battling advanced Parkinson's disease for the past two years, it was time for Mrs.L's dad to leave this life for his next one. The services were perfect and the skies cleared for the interment, the AirForce honor guard, and all that goes on at a career military funeral - quite moving stuff when the flag is folded, the seven man rifle team fires three times and then Taps is played. Something I'd not seen before was when the head of the honor guard when out and retrieved three cartridge casings and tucked them inside the folded flag.

Thank you all, again, for the good thoughts and wishes. JL

And thanks for the Tanq Gran - that looks like just the ticket. Cheers!
