Thanks Dave. I look at it as a double bonus. We were able to help the lighthouse but I really liked being able to recognize people with their badges on at the reunion.

When my husband and I were touring the submarine in the Baltimore harbor, we had on our badges and a lady came up to us and said she was from our home town in Utah. She had noticed our badges we were wearing. She was with the Utah air national guard and was on her way to Afghanistan as part of the air re-fueling team.
