In my world there is only one thing more important than this hobby. That's family. Congrats.

Incredible! Please tell her thank you from this service member.

This experience is going to be much better than the Nationals.

That's incredibly awesome! You have every right to be full of pride. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event. You can always do the National next year.

That's awesome Andrew! DC is great, I grew up there, so much history. Its a great experience to stand in the same spots on the same floors that Jefferson, Washington, etc stood. Don't miss the museum of natural history and the air & space museum.

Andrew,

That's a great story. I'm sure it will be a lasting memory for her. I've participated in several funerals at Arlington and it brings a tear every time I go out there.

I would say she could take a tour of the White House, but it might not be open

If you are able to make it out here, you could make it to the "Nationals", just go a couple miles north and you could take in a Washington Nationals game

Frank

She is actually going with school. Neither her or her mom know yet that we are going to be there. I plan on surprising her mom with the tickets and then surprising her at Arlington. We unfortunately won't be able to hang out much with her.

Default Great experience!

Congrats to her! The heck with the National! It's overrated in my eyes anyway.
