On Friday we had the opportunity to celebrate Flag Day at the Mormon Battalion. This year african americans were honored. We interviewed two of the four who were honored.
The children pictured below sang "You're a Grand Old Flag" and were so cute. They are the grandchildren and great grandchildren of President Bennett in our MCRD Branch.
Sister Storrs is pictured here with the re-enactors. They represented: the Tuskegee Airman, Union Army and the Patriots with George Washington.
These are the four who were honored. The two on the right are the ones we interviewed. They both have amazing histories of service.
Our super Military Relations missionaries!
Over the next month, two of these couples will have their last transfers to home!
We will be alone until two more couples come in the middle of August.
We will miss them so much. They have been here since we arrived.
We had so much fun together as you can see when we went and bought strawberries in Carlsbad!
They were the most delicious strawberries I have ever tasted!
We continue to serve the recruits and marines and love it! We are invited to two change of commands next week. One involves a colonel who is coming to MCRD and is LDS. We look forward to meeting him.
