Eagle Project Fire Pit Finally Used!! Ü


Last night The American Legion, for Veterans Day ,
Used the"Eagle Project Fire Pit "!
They asked the 14 year old to come and Bring some of the
Boys that had helped him accomplish this..
(Our Stake had a Veterans day thing so only 1 boy from his troop showed up..)
His Cousins, who also helped with the fire pit, came also..
The Little Guy wore his Cub Scout uniform and they all wore white gloves .
IT was quite a scene! I have no idea what I thought would happen when they burned the flags,,, But they really put up a flame!!!

Some flags were Huge..
Most were the regular size..
They had 30 Flags to Honorably
Burn..
The flames , as they would lay the flags down, would go out towards the boys and their hands!
They could not see it but the crowd sure could!
I have to admit to yelling out for them to drop it at least twice!!
I embarrassed Our youngest Daughter with my outbursts! Ü
But they could have been burned very bad if the flames had reached their
hands.. The gloves were polyester!! Yikes!!!

It was a very interesting event!

My Sister and My In Laws were there
also...
After, the fed us Chili and Corn Bread.
They also had a little thing for the POW /MIA's & the Dead..
It was quite the Night!!!

T.S. You did a Great Job!!!!
