USAF Memorial Dedication



C.I.R. Press Editorial

WASHINGTON, D.C.
– Today was the dedication of the United States Air Force Memorial. It was a great day and thanks to a demanding work schedule I was not able to attend. But it was a fantastic day on the land next to Arlington National Cemetery and in the skies over the Nations Capital. The President said it best in the following (this is one thread where Bush bashing is not appropriate nor will it be tolerated):

"Soldiers can walk the grounds where they fought for freedom," President George W. Bush said, "and Marines can wander down the beaches they stormed, but airmen can never visit the spacious skies they raced across in the defense of our freedom. But now, they can come here."
