Hey folks!
We thought we'd pass on a request from Operation Flags For Vets.
OFFV is an effort to plant 66,000 flags on the graves of military veterans in Massachusetts National Veterans Cemetery in Bourne. They need volunteers.
"OPERATION FLAGS FOR VETS
May 28, 2016
Operation Flags for Vets will again be placing flags on the graves at the Massachusetts National Veterans Cemetery in Bourne, Massachusetts for Memorial Day. We are looking for volunteers to help with this worthy and solemn endeavor. People of all ages are welcomed to help in the placement of the 57,000 flags on the final resting place of our beloved veterans.
Operation Flags for Vets is a program of the SFC Jared C. Monti Charitable Foundation established in memory of Medal of Honor recipient SFC Jared C. Monti; KIA Afghanistan 6-21-06. Donations to our foundation may be mailed to Paul Monti 408 Center Street Raynham, MA 02767."
We'll be there in some form. It's good for the kid to get a little patriotism, and a bit of work in the sun is good for me. With 66,000 flags to plant, they're going to need some diggers.
You mean for Memorial Day? What day are they looking for help on?

That's what I get for cut-n-pasting from their Facebook page.
