In Jr. High School I had bought a bracelet for two dollars. Each bracelet had a P.O.W. or an M.I.A.'s name on it. I wore it for years until it broke. I never forgot his name. Well, this year on our trip to Washington D.C. I got to look up his name on the wall. Even though the records say he was never found, it is marked as confirmed deceased with a cross. Thoughout the years I tried to find out about his whereabouts. I did get a reply from the White House (which I will post as soon as I locate it again).
My Husband, Hans says that he believes every American Citizen should have the opportuny to see Washington D.C.. It will humble you for sure. Next time I would like to take it in about three days instead of one and a half. Perhaps we will go when it isn't the hottest day of the summer next time either.
There is so much more we need to see. So I anticipate another visit. Maybe it will be with the grandkids.
