Saturday afternoon. The ceremony this a.m. in Flamierge was another special moment. The Association troops were in formation, with John J the Vet inspecting. A nice ceremony where the members of the 17th were remembered for their service in the liberty restored. Later, a friendship toast at a school in Bertogne. Each stop is filled with "photo ops". Lunch in Bastogne was followed by a surprise in the "Peace Woods" - with a plaque to commemorate John J's return to Bastogne. There is still much gratitude evidenced by the residents, as well as respect shown by many others. It's heart-warming. More later...
