Don't forget to stand
Posted: Tuesday, July 10, 2007
Thank you, Kenai and all of the 4th of July Parade participants! What a wonderful display of patriotism. Lots of people were in attendance and our flag was brilliantly displayed.
However, as I rose to put my hand on my heart when the color guards passed by and at the start of the parade, I noticed others still sitting, hats on. I would like to suggest that with all future flag events, include a bold reminder to all to stand at attention for the first passing of the flag. Even the ballgames request people stand for the anthem and the flag.
