good to see some footage! nice work. kids always add a level of intensity to the story. to see the little boy in his jersey standing next the soldiers in their armor and uniforms is a really intense image. the camera belongs there. kudos, mr. foley, for giving me images and stories to ponder in my databank of memory.

stay safe and aware.
