4 At Naval Base Kitsap in Bremerton, folding the large 20x30 ft garrison flag. This is the honor guard helping me.
5 It took them an hour and many refolds to get the stars to align for display in the case. They were so cheerful about it despite the 40ish degree weather.
6 You can see many women on the honor guard. They were posted here after returning from having a baby.
7 Maybe this is the final go!
8 Stuffing it in so there is no bunching to the side.
9 Hold on tight! Don't drop it! He is really pushing.
10 Taking a picture with all of them now.
11 Sam and Ben were so good for the whole event. Sam stood at attention for the entire first folding. He understands the notion of respect, something that I think must be demonstrated, and practiced in youth. Kids are not real abstract thinkers, able to embrace a concept without really trying it on first. My observation only.
