Here is the inside of the Veteran's Wall of Honor in Alpine, CA as they are working on it and praying the weather stays nice until the unveiling on Memorial Day 2011. You and your 5 brothers are on the wall already as you can see by the black tiles on the wall. And the weather co-operated as they finished putting all the tiles on the wall. Beautiful and touching site to see.
