Santa Barbara, California USA...
The second picture and the last picture are taken at the beach in Santa Barbara right next to
the Pier. There is a veterans group that started putting a cross and candle for every death in
Iraq and Afghanistan. The amazing thing is that they only do it on the weekends.
They put up this graveyard and take it down every weekend. Guys sleep in the sand next
to it and keep watch over it at night so nobody messes with it. Every cross has the name,
rank and D.O.B. and D.O.D. on it. Very moving, very powerful. So many young volunteers.
So many 30 to 40 year olds as well.
Amazing!
The ACLU has filed a suit to have all military cross-shaped headstones removed.
And that they filed another suit to end prayer from the military completely.
Prayers for our soldiers.
Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in this our time of
need.
