Field of Honor

Last weekend being the fortieth anniversary of man landing on the moon, and Neil Armstrong being from Wapak, they had the big Moon Festival.

At the Neil Armstrong Museum, there was the "Field of Honor".

There were hundreds of American Flags placed in honor of heroes that have served our country as servicemen and women, police, firefighters, and other first responders. It also honored the astronauts that have died in service to America.



To be there, standing in the midst of these flags waving in the wind, knowing that each one represents someone that has dedicated their time and/or life to our country, it is truly a calming and spiritual experience.

I don't know why, but it touches your heart...
