Honor


As we drive around tomorrow and see the flags at half staff, we will know why. We Alaskans, know what happened to the C-17 crew. We know that four people, Americans, those that served their country, died.
We may not know them personally. We do not know their story. We only know, that they are gone.

Tomorrow, I will not casually drive past the lowered flag and wonder "what now". I will know what happened and count my blessings for all that I have and honor those that have given so much.
