Dan Rittel and Mike Carr, Nice job with the continued CW grave documenting. I sent info to allow a relative of James Hall Vernon. who is buried at Walnut Hill Cemetery in Council Bluffs to order a military stone.

Thanks to Brother Norm, the stone is set! If you have any suggestions or other ideas, please let me know, so that I can get this printed out. I will send the Re-dedication and The Unknown Dead to the Department Commanders. I have added the Gun Salute because we will have the cannon there. The Cannon will fire the start of the ceremonies and at the conclusion, the Nebraska Rangers will fire two volleys, followed by a cannon volley. We may even have another bugle there. Maps will be sent
