As a veteran of the United States Navy, and at present in the position of acting Commander of my local American Legion, I was inspired by the men and women of this wonderful organization to create an image celebrating, in my opinion, the most important task assigned to us, the Honor Guard. American Legion designates an Honor Guard as a unit that provides funeral and/or graveside ceremonies in conjunction with veteran events and ceremonies honoring America. We are a close knit group of veterans from all eras and all branches of service. I’m extremely proud to call each of them, Comrade.
