This morning my husband and I attended services at the Pioneer & Military Memorial Park in downtown Phoenix, where I had the honor of representing the Auxiliary to the Picacho Peak Camp #1, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War (SUVCW), one of the 5 Allied Orders all representing the Union at the event. The other 3 are Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War (DUVCW), the Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic (LGAR), and the Woman's Relief Corps (WRC). The Margaret Warner Wood Detached Tent #1 (Arizona) of the DUVCW already has photos on their facebook page, along with pictures of the other Allied Orders contingent that attended services at the National Cemetery in north Phoenix. Fast work, Verna!
FWIW, I attempted to enter the names of family members who died in the line of duty on the Memorial Day poppy page that USAA has been advertising during the Major League baseball games this week. I used both Firefox and Safari (Mac versions) and each time it just stared mutely when I hit the "submit" button. So, please remember in your prayers the souls of George L. Phillips, USN (WWII), Asa D. Packard, Charles Tuckwell, and John Geddes (all Civil War, Army), and others who gave their lives in the line of duty.
If you haven't already, please go put out your flag!
