Navy Arlington Ladies

Laurel emailed me to let me know the reason why she was able to take us into Arlington Cemetery. I said before that it was because she was a Captain in the Navy, but that was wrong. She said it's because she is a member of the Navy Arlington Ladies (along with Brett's other aunt Marty). This association was established with the intent of the ladies attending veteran funerals, to make sure that no veteran is buried alone. The Ladies attend the funerals to make sure that someone is there to show the proper respect for the said veteran. Which is really neat. I think that is a great organization of which to be a part.
