    Wow, what a COOL event. tee hee. With temps starting out in the 40’s, it warmed up to low 50’s, then half way through the presentation, the front came in like a freight train & temps dropped like a rock with winds to match. The 4 of us were still very glad we came to assist in honoring this hero. SGT Aaron Cabrera, welcome home soldier.
