The USS Hornet Museum thanks you, Tom, for all the hard work and dedication you have given to the veterans of our former wars. Someday when you come towards San Francisco we would be honored if you would come by the USS Hornet museum to say hello.

The lost symbol!

One of these days I'm going to visit the WWII memorial...I can feel it...

I almost thought this was scene from Forest Gump!

Hanx, On a related subject, how about a proper film about Eddie Chapman, the WWII double agent? Perhaps Colin Farrell, Ralph Feinnes, Damien Lewis or Anthony Howell as Chapman?

I'm proud to see my Sen. Tester (D-MT) there. He's the crew-cut in the front row.

They look so cute:-)

where's Jenny?!?!! Just kidding. This is awesome. I fully support those who fought and who are still fighting to defend our great nation. Proud to be following you on Twitter!

Grandfather was an aircraft mechanic on Tinian. Dad served in Vietnam. Figure my part in all this is to always remember and appreciate them. You're a good egg, Hanks... keep bringin' history alive for the young 'uns.

Awesome.

I salute you all! Each and every one.

That's a great shot of some deserving heroes and a really big pointy thing.

wow,great shot!

Hoping some day you will honor some other heroes...those of the CCC (Civl Conservation Corps) with a film. My 92 yr. old father-in-law has stories, thank God, and is alive to talk about it. God Bless all these men/women for so many positive contributions.

Great Turn Out! Thank you for taking time out of your schedule to honor our soldiers.

Good job Captain Miller.

Thanks for posting this. Being a hero is a mere matter of standing up for what you believe, or being in the right place at the right time. TSgt, USAF, Retired
