so I think it should at least be mentioned first, but I share your sentiments.

 

 

Near the snow, near the sun, in the highest fields,

See how these names are fêted by the waving grass

And by the streamers of white cloud

And whispers of wind in the listening sky.

The names of those who in their lives fought for life,

Who wore at their hearts the fire's centre.

Born of the sun, they travelled a short while toward the sun

And left the vivid air signed with their honour. 

May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift

Thank you for sharing that info...I had always wondered what the eagle represented and in spite of too many trips to the Big House to count, had never bothered reading the inscription on the Statue.

I also think the swearing in of new officers at graduation, which may have started at the 2010 graduation with Obama and was repeated this year, is a good practice and was very well received, as it should have been, by those in attendance.

And thank you to all of you who protect us. Be safe.
