Rolling Thunder 2010 - A Soldier's Vigil
Semper Fi!!!!!
3000 vets on motorcycles from across the USA paraded in D.C. the Sunday
before Memorial Day,
while a
solitary, saluting
Marine greeted
them out on Constitution
Avenue... the Marine
stood at salute for 3
straight hours, while
the parade of roaring
bikes kept on coming....
it is held in
remembrance of those
who've fallen in the
military.... the event
(or the group) is called
Rolling Thunder... George Bush used to meet
these bikers before they
paraded... the camera is
on the Marine a lot...
watch his struggles with
his emotions, and his
struggles with holding
that salute... the way
he salutes is very
touching... his head
lowered, his eyes down,
in reverence for the
fallen.. I know what he
was feeling... and as I
watched him, I could
feel it too.... it got
to be overwhelming for
him... and the tears
started flowing... watch
what he says when he
finally breaks, but
keeps right on holding
that salute...
