Patriot Guard and More...
Saturday was Military Day at the Rally. The sky rained sky divers carrying flags. Helicopters hovered over the crowds. The Patriot Guard was present in significant numbers, providing a motorcycle escort for recruits arriving to be sworn in and a standing flag line for recruits to pass through while patriotic citizens cheered their support and approval. A youthful Mime troop performed patriotic skits on stage. A youth choir serenaded the crowd with rousing renditions of patriotic songs. A local high school band played while the recruits filed in. A WWII Navajo Code talker was on stage. A satellite hookup allowed family, friends and well wishers to talk to troops in Iraq.
