Veterans Day at the U.S.S. Hornet

Approaching the USS Hornet.

Jojo on the dock.

The kids were entranced by the band.

While listening to the music, Jojo suddenly missed his mother. Look at the stars in his eyes.

WWII veterans

Being on a ship, the wreath wasn't placed on a cenotaph but rather was thrown into the sea. The kids were each given a flower to throw in as well.

Jojo, meanwhile, looked perfectly in place with the veterans with his corduroy pants and khaki jacket. All he was missing was the baseball cap with his division's insignia on it.
