Has anyone recieved this photo in their E-mail? It's of a Bald Eagle sitting on a headstone in the Minneapolis National Cemetary. My E-mail was titled "A Great Guard". Being a veteran I was so touched I cried..
The photo has gone viral so what is your story and reaction to the photo? Thank you Poncho for the link BTW...
Read the story..it is better then the e-mail...Like Paul Harvey used to say..and now, here's the Rest Of The Story!!!

I thought it might be a hoax but, apparantly, it isn't. Thx.

Awesome photo... better story. I hope the guy who took it can make a dollar or two off this shot, but it sounds like he knows the best reward is the reaction from GI's, Vets and their families.
