We took the elders and went to the American Cemetery at Omaho Beach one P day. It was cold, windy, and snowing off and on. But we were asked to help with retiring the colors that afternoon. What a great experience! Helping to lower and fold the flag with a backdrop of 10,000 graves of American soldiers who gave their lives to liberate France and Europe was humbling. Elder Jurrus and I did one flag, Elder Jurrus and Messick did the other.
