Description
Captured 5/25/09, at the beautiful Los Angeles National Cemetery in beautiful West Los Angeles, California.
More than 86,000 veterans, going back to the American Civil War, are interred there.
Took tons/tonnes of photos of the cemetery and ceremonies today. Huge crowd in attendance.
Much more to come of this event.
Have a nice day.

That's wonderful, Harry. Thank you for uploading this to remind us all that it's not JUST a day off for many people.
Excellent and timely shot, Harry; great work!
wonderful shot for this day
Beautiful shot. The National cemeteries always look well kept.
Nice shot, great work.
Well done. Very timely. My wife passed in Feb 2007...she was an Army nurse with two tours in Vietnam. She is interred in the beautiful VA Cemetery here in Leavnworth. I took pictures there yesterday...today was gray...didn't go back.
Wonderful tribute!! Thanks for sharing it.
So much emotion looking this picture. A great tribute.
A beautiful image and a great tribute. Thank you for reminding us what Memorial Day is really about.
Beautifully done, Harry and a poignant reminder. Thank you.
Great shot Harry; very well composed. A great tribute.
86,000 is a sad number but look at all those American flags. That took a lot of time. Grand tribute for all these heros Harry and thanks for sharing. Dana
A great tribute for all the fallen.
Beautiful photo, great tribute.
Contemplation and Hope, Lost and Life.
Indeed! We don't do anywhere near enough in this Country to honor our lost. May they rest in peace - all of them, everywhere. Rob.
Wonderful work and dedication Harry! I took some beautiful shots at the Arlington Cemetary in Washington DC a couple of years ago and I also do love them. There is a certain peace in a cemetary shot... Beautiful! :)
Lovely Dedication Harry, for sure. Nice shot!
Very moving photograph thanks for sharing these.
Nice image. Thanks for sharing!
I'm really glad you posted this Harry. It's important that we never forget the price some people pay, in order that we can live the way we do.
Beautiful pov and image, Harry... perfect for this special day!
