There is nothing more moving than watching a color guard ceremony. My son, Brian, was in JROTC and in the color guard for several parades in Hamilton, Ohio.
So today's moment of joy was the color guard that opened the graduation ceremony of my nephew becoming a full-fledged policeman!
A bit of humor: His Dad was a policeman back in the 90s. I was driving home from the orthodontist and he was on patrol, happened to spot my car. On went his patrol car lights and my kids were "Mom! What did you do wrong?" I pulled into the next driveway and waited. He walked up and I tried to calm the kids, saying "Look! Its Uncle Rob!" But they wanted nothing to do with him in full uniform!! I still laugh about it, and its been 35+ years!
