5. Those are wonderful. I didn't see those and sorry she was made to feel unwelcome for chronicling

those moments in time, which are a part of American history. And I've just looked through the first page there. I bookmarked it.

Obama's ability to connect with the soldiers, and so many people, reminds me of some special people I've known in my life who were able to show those around them heartfelt approval and respect. There are many who brush others away and walk on by, or don't open themselves up.

Thanks for the link to those photos. And if you hear from Jackeens give her my thanks.
