The volunteers of the San Jacinto Democratic Veterans Brigade read the names of the soldiers killed in Afghanistan and Iraq and planted a flage for each one. After 5 1/2 hours the last flag was planted, the last name read and white roses donated by a passerby was placed at the last flag.

Taps was played.

And we were dismissed.

The volunteers removed the flags (due to insurance reasons) and then returned at 5:00am to replant the flags for the day. The event was held in Sam Houston Park in downtown Houston. The flags were visible from the high rise towers surrounding the park.

The Brigade did an absolutely fantastic job.
