Marp, Thanks for the reminder! I always look forward to watching and honoring our fallen and wounded service men and women! I think Gary, Joe, the musicians and all involved do a wonderful job each year. It is a reminder that we should keep military families in our hearts and prayers every day!

Thanks, @Marp. This show is always so moving, so poignant. I think they do a glorious job every year. In my area, there are a couple more airings (in the wee hours of Tuesday morning), so it's still available for some who might've missed it.
