PESO: Memorial Day USA
https://www.photo.net/photo/12215070/iwo-jima-memorial Eternal Father, strong to save, Whose arm hath bound the restless wave, Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep Its own appointed limits keep; Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee, For those in peril on the sea! Lord, guard and guide the men who fly Through the great spaces in the sky. Be with them always in the air, In darkening storms or sunlight fair; Oh, hear us when we lift our prayer, For those in peril in the air! Eternal Father, grant, we pray, To all Marines, both night and day, The courage, honor, strength, and skill Their land to serve, thy law fulfill; Be thou the shield forevermore >From every peril to the Corps.

Thanks for your comment, Steve. The people in the background are waiting for an overly long poem to end.

Re: PESO: Memorial Day
Thanks, Ann, Paul, Christine and Frank. This very dignified gentleman always comes to the ceremony that begins the parade, although he can no longer march more than a few blocks. I tried to capture him last year, but I like this image a lot more. The disinterest of the crowd has more to do with the pastor who was giving a prayer that was a bit too long than with any disrespect for this veteran and his comrades. (At this point, I think the preacher was announcing that he was retiring from his role in this event, after 25 years, and was looking for a volunteer to do it for the next few decades.) A few minutes later, the old vet took off his hat as they played taps, fired off three rifle salutes,placed a wreath at the memorial, and dropped another wreath into the creek below supposedly to make its way to the ocean).

RE: PESO: Memorial Day
Such a poignant photo! The apparent disinterest of the spectators while this proud old man soldiers on speaks volumes. Excellent photo.
