May 29th at the American Cemetery Memorial Services

Introducing US Ambassador to the Philippines. He spoke at the ceremonies.

Girl who helped place flowers at the memorial from the generations of today and in the future.  She and a boy did this and then said very loud.  "We will never forget".  We all got lumps in our throats.

We went with the three B's again but this time off to the Memorial Service at the American Cemetery.  We so enjoyed our time there. The American Ambassador was so enjoyable to see and talk to.  He is very approachable. Three B's are, Birds, Bells and Burningham's

There were many wreaths of flowers placed that day but I chose to picture the ones from the USA and the Philippines.
