After flying home yesterday afternoon, we drove to the Iowa Jima
Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery to watch the Marine Corp's Silent
Drill. The boys were restless, and understandably so after a two hour drive to
the Dallas airport, a two hour wait in the airport due to our plane's
mechanical failure, and a two and a half hour plane ride. However, the
"dual" between the Sergeant and the Private peaked their interest,
and Keagan determined that "the boss" won with the best rifle tricks.
(There is no dual, contest, or boss, but with little boys battles of supremacy
always make for a more interesting story.) This was one more event I can cross
off of my list of must-sees before we leave next summer.
