<p>lunch today was really cool with a speaker and a few videos.. tonight will blow me away though.</p>

<p>What's happening tonight ?</p>

<p>Taps vigil.</p>

<p>Will it be available on video for those of us not on the Hill?</p>

<p>I don't think so. It'll be completely dark outside, and there won't be any lights on. Besides, you just can't fully experience a Taps Vigil through video anyway.</p>

<p>since i'm here at annapolis and i joined the men's glee club, i had the honor today of singing at the dedication of the Pentagon Memorial. It was quite a site to see: the hundreds of uniformed soldiers in place who unveiled the benches, the playing of Taps from the top of the Pentagon, President Bush and so many high-ups gathered there. Not to mention the 20,000+ ppl in attendence there to remember. it was quite the experience</p>

<p>Wow Eagle, awesome opportunity. I just Googled the new Pentagon Memorial and there are already pictures posted from today's dedication. What an awesome memory to be there on the dedication day.</p>

<p>This group one shows the last song. You can see three glee club members on the far right, and i was about 2/3 more ppl of the photo to the right. if you have time, you should watch the video with the memorial being revealed</p>

<p>Wow, just beautiful. I love the photos of all branches of Service standing together, waiting to unveil the benches. I don't know if I could ever sit on any of those benches. It sure makes one proud to be an American. What a beautiful memorial.</p>

<p>i've gotta say that was one of the coolest things i've ever done. the chapel was extremely amazing; the 21 gun salute; us chorale singing; in the stairwell; the taps buglers... amazing.</p>

<p>The chapel tonight had to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen, I just wish it hadn't been raining!</p>

<p>My roomate said it made it all the more powerful. But yeah, the fact that it was raining and cold wasn't really what I had in mind.</p>
