Tonight during Dilon's soccer game ( on base) it became time for colors...games stopped (all of them), Marines in uniform saluted, Marines not in uniform stood at attention, kids, spouses, coaches, and refs all stood facing the flag as it was lowered for the evening!!
I love it! I am proud to be in America and to be an American! It was beautiful to see a large group of people stop what they were doing and honor our flag. I have seen it happen other times on base, anytime it is colors things stop, I've even seen cars stop on the road if evening colors is heard, but it hit me tonight. Thankful my children have this beautiful exposure in their lives.
