Commander & State Commander Joe Scott from Scott's T.V. Store Asbury
Park he was great treated every Veteran equal.When he past away
things got a little out of Hand.Joe Scott was great for Asbury Park
got involve in theschools & everything.Asbury Park has alot of
people black & white that will work together I believe that was
proven on March 11, 2005 it didn't matter the color of your
skin.What you believe should happen in Asbury Park with the
Redevelopment that night.If you believe in the War or was againest
we all United that night for one reason for a young man that was
wounded in Combat that was rasie in this great City.Lou Jordan &
Gilbert Reed came that night.All the stuff he got while he was in
Walter Reed Hospital the 1st time more than any solider in Walter
Reed Army Hospital Washington D.C. there are some people that know
about a town called Asbury Park in Washington because how everyone
united for a young man.Stone Pony gave me 3 shopping bags of shirts
& hats for the soliders at Walter Reed.When Kate Mellina went on
Channel 12 news asking for donations.He got more than any other
solider in Walter Reed the nurse told me.Not only do I think there
should be a flag flying on our waterway 24/7 for the soldier
officer,fireman there also the person in the city that donates there
time in specail ways to make it better.The VFW donated a fountain
for sunset lake it breaks does the city fix {no} Werner takes the
time & does.Ben plants flowers in Bradley Park.Skip takes pictures
of March 11,2005 that help SSG Craft alot when he had to back to the
Hospital 2nd time to look at those pictures.Maureen donates alot of
time with her show.Everyone on March 11 that donated time for the
event.Alot of these people go unnotice there what that Flag is all
about also & should Fly 24/7 on one of the greatest Waterways in the
U.S.
