My grandfather passed away on October 31, 2007. Pop Pop was a first sergeant in the US Army and received the purple heart and bronze star throughout his tours in the Korean War and WWII. Our family was able to bury him yesterday in Arlington National Cemetery. (It took so long due to a backlog of funerals for the men and woman killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.) It was a beautiful ceremony.
