On the Jewel of the seas ship yesterday on our 8th day of the cruise over here in Europe the cruise director asked all veterans to come down to the centrum on deck 4 where everyone could look down from even 5 decks up while he gave nice talk on Memorial day then they gave minute of silence for all that were lost from all wars. Then man played bugle for everyone then they gave all us veterans a gold medal to salute us and everyone clapped and then came down to shake our hands it was very emotional was so great a honor.
