Just a little more background on the photo...

The flag to the right of the US flag is the U.S. Army colors. "Colors" being simply a military flag. The 4-foot streamers that hang from it represent every campaign the army ever fought in. There are currently 178 streamers on the army colors: the first being "Lexington 1775" and the most recent, "Iraq."

The gentleman in the VFW cap (which he wears whenever he goes out.) Was a submariner in WWII. He spent much of the war lurking on the floor of Manilla Bay in the Philippenes.

Thanks for your thoughts, guys!
