Memorial Day ceremony in Sun City

The Georgetown-Williamson County Veterans Memorial Plaza in Sun City, Texas  was host for Monday’s Memorial Day observance, marking its 10th year on this holiday.   As usual, a huge crowd was there to mark the day we honor our military personnel.  Guest speaker this year was Raymond F. Chandler III, Sergeant Major of the Army (there’s only one in the entire Army), an impressive man.   No less impressive, carrying a feather-endowed walking stick, was retired Army Colonel Gerald Allen Wilcomb, a 5th Infantry veteran of both Korea and Vietnam.   Colonel Wilcomb sat way in the back, obviously not wanting to draw attention to himself.    Intriguing people, however, stand out, as he did.   Here are some photos I shot for the Williamson County Sun.
