Description

He's so young; a man for such a short time, and he played a song that touched our hearts and we applauded that he was here and not there.

A heartfelt thank you go out to you for your comments on "The Bugler Boy.." Vermont is such a sparsely populated state with a bit more than 621k in the state. Since the beginning of the Iraq war..we have lost 11 soldiers..all from the Guard...some right out of high school. We just received an entire group back in the last two weeks and the state rejoiced! Thanks again! #1198762

Stephen Zacker March 22, 2005
