Veterans Day, November 11, 2009. Here is a tribute at the Olivewood Cemetary in Riverside, CA. I have seen this tribute in previous years - but I am still not sure who erects this memorial. Is it the homeowner behind the fence line? Or a construction company, or a landscaping outfit?

This display is based on the all time record smash by Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992, "All Gave Some, Some Gave All" - A tribute to Veterans. The title track hit no 56 on the US Country Charts - and it was all by airplay request - the single was never officially released.

This is a very moving memorial that can be seen off the 91 Fry at Central in Riverside, CA - About 60 miles east of downtown LA. God bless our troops!
