Rock Legends Cruise VI ~ w/ Molly Hatchet
Patriotic Southern Rock and Blues Band
Vet-signed US Flag given as a gift by US Veterans
Main deck-stage ~ Day Four ~ 12:15 PM
*[The back-story: Molly Hatchet is a very patriotic band
with strong ties to the USA Military. They always mention
the sacrifices of our men. Two Veterans came on stage
and presented this flag to the band as a form of thanks]
*[On a personal note: I thanked this lead singer while waiting
on the customs-line, getting off the ship. A very firm handshake,
kind smile, and a warm, lovely man! All of the Legends were
patriotic! Many wore US flags during their shows. I must say the expression this band uses with Veteran Respect; "Hell Yeah!"]
*[All proceeds from Rock Legends Cruises go to the Native
American Heritage Association, a non-profit organization
dedicated to fighting hunger and providing basic life necessities
to families living on Reservations in South Dakota, U.S.A.]
For love of country they accepted death, and thus resolved
all doubts, and made immortal their patriotism and their virtue.

on the grounds of Arlington National Cemetery May 30th, 1868
A portion of the New York Post Office James A. Farley building is being transformed into an extension of Penn Station to be the new home for Amtrak Service.
The 8th Avenue facade with its massive columns was built in 1912.
The project is named after Daniel Patrick Moynihan, the senator who, in the early 1990s, proposed transforming the post office, which sits across Eighth Avenue from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden.
Mr. Moynihan, who died in 2003, also viewed the station project as an act of civic redemption, for the demolition in 1963 of the original Beaux-Arts Penn Station.

The American Flag on the walkway to the Golden Gate Bridge, taken in an early morning heavy fog. Seen in Outd oor Photographer Magazine (Unofficial) .
The Circle Line boat tour around Manhattan included a drive-by of Ellis Island.
From Wikipedia:
Ellis Island, in Upper New York Bay, was the gateway for over 12 million immigrants to the United States as the nation's busiest immigrant inspection station from 1892 until 1954.
The island was greatly expanded with land reclamation between 1892 and 1934. Before that, the much smaller original island was the site of Fort Gibson and later a naval magazine.
The island was made part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument in 1965, and has hosted a museum of immigration since 1990.
Long considered part of New York state, a 1998 United States Supreme Court decision found that most of the island is in New Jersey. The south side of the island, home to the Ellis Island Immigrant Hospital, is closed to the general public and the object of restoration efforts spearheaded by Save Ellis Island.

The Memorial was ready for Dedication on November 8, 2008.
The Memorial has several parts. In the center is a sculpture created by Mark Greenaway. The figure shown at the right is a frontal view of a figure representing a contemporary soldier. He appears on the right end of the statue.
