Flag raising ceremony this morning at the venetian Military Cemetery. The graves are mostly u. S. Military Service Members but there are a few for german and italian prisoners of war from world war ii. Its the oldest Military Cemetery in the western United States. I just respect all the veterans that went to war and died for our country, so i also really like this town and its services for veterans. Its both a somber event but also an event that i think elevates peoples patriotism and its a great opportunity to recognize the ultimate sacrifices made by those who died defending our country. There are 211 people. This evening there will be a special memorial day vigil held at the crosses of lafayette. The peace and Justice Centers are inviting the public to gather at 7 00 at the crosses on deer hill road. Organizers say the event is designed to give people an outlet to express sadness over the ongoing wars in the middle east. Theyre working to create a world where war is unacceptable. While some have spent this memorial day at ceremonies honoring those who died while serving, others paid tribute by attending a unique event in the east bay. Planes from world war ii are on display at the livermore airport today and tomorrow. Its called the wings of freedom tour, and its attracted thousands of people. Visitors are able to tour the fully restored planes which include a b17 flying fortress, and a p51 mustang. The event is at Living History Museum that gives the public a chance to learn about the significance of these aircraft during the war to go up in the air in one of them, it costs several hundred dollars but we ran into a world war ii veteran and his son who said its worth it. The memories of the old days back in world war ii and the fact that we were able to do it again just turns me on and always been a dream of mine to go on a b17 as well. This was like a dream come true for me and a chance for him to revisit. The planes will be on display from 10 to 5 today and tomorrow as well.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your long weekend and lets wish those San Jose Sharks and Golden State Warriors good luck as they play tonight. Play tonight. Welcome to bay area people. Thanks for joining us. Were coming to you from the San Francisco National Cemetery here in the for our special memory yay day show. Walking through this cemetery or any Military Cemetery can be overwhelming but its important to remember that each one of these gravestones was somebodys loved within and not only did they sacrifice for this country but their families did too. Ds absolutely gorgeously designed. Its got travis name am tribute to both her son and his sacrifice. He loved people and he loved life. He grew up in fremont. He was an athlete playing baseball, hockey and football but even as a young child his mom says he knew he wanted to serve. When he was about is 12 he joined a Navy Sea Cadet program with two of his buddies and my father was a World War Ii Navy seabe. Heed a mierd my father to that. When he joined he thought im going be a navy seal one day and then when he got to the high school the marines started to recruit. One day he came home and said i want to be a marine. I want to be the best of the best. Ten days after granting from high school, he was gone. He went into the marines. Just months later travis was on his way to the middle east. Went straight over to iraq. So february 2004 hes going over there. That must have been hard to went down. His youngest brother and father and i went to spend three days with him before he deployed. He said just dont go. Itll be too hard for you. I tried to take care of him all of his life and then at that point it was out of my hands. He was going to be a man and do what he wanted to do. Thats got to be a source of pride. Absolutely. But a source of fear; right . Lived in fear when he did deploy we lived in fear i didnt want to hear a phone cringe or watch tv. I didnt watch tv or news for the whole time he was deployed. She talked to him twice when he was gone. The last time was march 17th. St. Patricks day he called. That was the last time i not to talk to him. Was he happy . He was. He loved it. He said, mom, you know, things are scary over here many he said i watched a few of my friends being blown away but im not scared and weve been giving kids candy in the market place. He loved doing that and they just think so highly of him and made him so proud that he was there to hopefully help these children have a better life. Proud of him. Very proud of hip. At 19 years old he had such a mentality to give and such a art. And then came that day in april of 2004. I get our of my car and there were there. And i look up and three marines came around the end of the building and i just lost it. I totally knew what they were there to tell me. They just told me hed been killed in iraq in an ambush and killed with nine other ma reens and a navy corpsman. She said goodbye to her 19 yearold son. He did come home. Maybe not the way i wanted him to but i got to have a closure. He came home in one piece. I got to temperature him good bye best i could. In the months that followed, she stood by other families suffering that same loss. Gold star parents and i thought theyre going to need someone who use walking in their assures and lend an ear or a hand. I went to nerve the bay area at that time. And two years after travis died she met this young man, travis son dillon. Ten days before christmas that year we found out that dillon was my grandson. Travis never knew he was a father. His mom told dianne she always thought shed have more time to tell him. All my kids travis was the only one that would tryst my hair and i picked him up and, of course, im balling anyway but he started twisting my hair. Oh my god. Youre my travis. What did he want to know . How brave he was and how giving he was and the huge heart that he had. He just loved life and he wanted to make a difference. There are no words to describe dye diannes loss or pain. Every night i go to bed, every morning i get up. Travis is on my mind 24 7. I talk to him all of the time and how much i love him. How much i miss him. Think about him all of the time. If he would just come and kiss my cheek. Come and kiss my cheek. On memorial day she hopes people take a moment to remember the sacrifice that her son, his family and so many others have made in service to this country. Just take a few minutes out to really realize and remember that memorial day is really all about. These young men and women are trying to secure our safety and i want people to know that freedom isnt free. Its paid at a very high cost by someone and someones family. Travis was buried at the golden gate National Cemetery. Thats built in 1937 after the voters in San Francisco decided they did not want semitairs built wf their city limbs. Here in the city has been here since the 19th century. Its first known beurl back in 1854. And when we come back a look has been here since the 19th century. It was declared a Historical National landmark back in 1962 and the tens of thousands of gray here represent our regions rich history. Over 35,000 graves here at the National Cemetery. A walk ththrough the rows of the gravestones a the National Cemetery is almost like a walk through a history book. Its a monument to all of the differents of history because it is a probably the holdest armybase on the west coast. In many ways it was the west coast pentagon. Orders were sent there. We have people here from almost every era of a con con conflicts the famous general worked out of here. General mark clark was a commander here. So every era of the u. S. Conflicts from the indiana wars spanish america war. World war ii. Iraq, afghanistan. People are buried here from all of these conflicts. And park rangers say recent conflicts have made people look at both memorial day and the a little differently. Especially since the days of 9 11 and the new engagement over seas in the middle east and other areas like that. Thats become more timely than to people in the bay area and across the country that memorial day is across the country a. New significance and maybe sometimes the question about whether the engagement of the United States in wars overseas and people are honoring people who step forward and do sacrifice and lose their lives for their country. And every year there seems to be a larger turnout here at memorial day. Do you think its understand sng do you think its respect . When brings them here . Its probably a combination of all of those things. Remembrance, respect. When you remember someone whos lost you bring them back into life. You bring them back to your living existence and therefore they do not die. But while memorial day is always marked with a large ceremony, rangers say visitors come every day. Sometimes searching for people they know but often they come simply to learn about the people who have come before. But theres also an electronic grave locate tor at the entrance so it you know the last name, you can look up a relative or somebody like a relative or the famous buffalo soldier whos buried here. When you talk about the soldiers that are here at the National Cemetery in the you cannot forget about the 400 Buffalo Soldiers buried here. This year marks the 150l1 thanniversary of the formation of the Buffalo Soldiers. So youve been studying Buffalo Soldiers literally your entire life. Pretty much. 50 years. 50 years. Tell us about the Buffalo Soldiers. They were African Americans who enlisted in the United States regular army after the civil war. I must tell you black soldiers have fought for this country starting back in the rev leutionz and even during colonial times. They fought in the colonies. But in 1866 they became part of the regular establishment. One in five soldiers in the regular army after 1866 was black. 85 of the battles fought against native americans did not include john wayne riding to the rescue. It included africanamerican soldiers. They got the name buffalo shol jer not because of the wooly hair and the mat of the that buffalo testimony they got it because of the native americans they thought. They were likened to the clan of the buffalo warrior. And my grandfather fear fiercest warriors. My granddaughters generation accepted this. As a title of hoarp. Hes a historian who was inspired by his grandfather to study the history of the Buffalo Soldiers. His grandfather as within army man who signed up in 1887. My grandfathers name was sal when i was 13, 14 thinking i knew everything in the world, i asked my dwrfer one day why he joined this racist countrys army and the things that he told me was something i would never forget. The army gave me the only part of the American Dream that america the nation would let me share in. Many black soldiers of his period and even today they used the military as a vehicle for a way up and a way out. The tombstone here is of william h tomp kins. He had served throughout his career with the 24th infantry. All four black regionments like my grandfather. The tombstone here is another black soldier. John a logan. Sergeant energy if many, many years. There are 400 Buffalo Soldiers buried here. Do you think that americans know that soldier sphwhrsm there are 400 soldiers here. Some were civil war veterans. If you go to the tombstone. One of the things that happened as the west disappeared, we abandoned military fortresses and each time we abandoned a fort we would take the people out of the dwraif and bring them to the nearest cemetery. And so you have 400 soldiers here, pretty much because of that. But 150 years after the formation of the Buffalo Soldiers he says their story just like his grandfathers is one that needs to be told. My grandfather was passing on a legacy of pride that i had nothing to be ashame of the of. When you look add the tombstone are or you watch a movie. It reflects that pride of who they were not just as americans but as men. And so its a story that i think the nation needs to honor. And there are so many stories to be told across the bay area. The per sirks dio is the smallest base but welcome back to bay area people and our special memorial day show. Coming to you from the National Cemetery but want to take you about 40 miles from here to the town of thats home to a small by historic Military Cemetery that has its own story to tell. It is not very big. Nor is it very well known. Many people that i know have never been here. And ive lived here 30 years glu be the Military Cemetery holds its place in history. When i tell people that have never been here that this the oldest Military Cemetery, it impresses people. Never been there. Go there and find a rich history in the stories of the people who have made this their final resting place. This was the headquarters for the pacific army in the 1840s into the 1850s. The army set up an outpost here in the 184s. In 1849 the first soldier was here. For many years it was home to the u. S. Army arsenal. In the is 1 0 that is left. The last person buried a the cemetery was in 158. And it was the wife of a soldier who was stationed here. So in totally there are 211 graves. Many of the names were. The army used to paint names on crosses when they buried people and they were lost to history. There are eight german prisoners of war that passed away and one italian why pliz of war. They were encars rated here during world war ii. Taking care of them kathy 34 years youve been taking care of this cemetery. Why do you do it . I just love it here. You and your husband . My husband was in the service and i just really believe in that. What do you feel when youre working here 8 hours a day and taking care of it . Peace . Man, i hope thats what i bring to the guys here. Watched people discover why is cemetery for the first time. Watch as others spend time trying to say thank you and been there when the loved ones come to remember a piece of their own history. Had a cornell and his wife come visit their baby. He was stationed here when the baby died of crib death and they come to visit him. I have guards from the prison when it was here and come and visit the italian and the germans. He used to play cards with them. They have come to this Small Cemetery to remember their soldiers. They want to pay honor to the german soldiers. These are young can officers. This is a connection for them with world war ii. Memorial days is about remembrance and this year as they have done in years past hundreds lf come to listen to the speeches. And to watch the wreath laying ceremony. At the end of the ceremony when taps is played, thats when it hits me. They go, oh, yeah. Thats why were here. Were here because a lot of people died for our way of life. And here in this meticulously cared for cemetery tucked in the hillside of though small town. Those who know the history and story hope people will remember those who rest hereafter the ceremony is over. I feel a strong sense of the history and an appreciation for how long theres been a lot of these people gave their lives for the country. I feel reverence. Feeling of appreciation. Hundreds will go to benecia and there will be remembrances across the bay area. The honor guard will be a part of many of them. When we come back talk to the Travis Air Force base honor guard. Members of at every military funny yal who and Community Event like the one on memorial day. To talk to members of that honor guard and to find out what it means to be part of such an important and symbolic detail. [ music ] every step, every movement is practiced countless times. From a flag fold to the bugle of taps. Every detail matters. Be on point and be sharp, chrisen and missionless and yes, only perfection is acceptable. We strive for perfection in every movement that we do. Thats why we practice three hours a day to be perfect. Because this is the last thing that a family gets for thinker loved one, their fallen member. The Travis Air Force base is relentless to doing it right. Providing a memorable and last impression for the next of kin, showing them a sense of pride of what their family was a part of. They are part of the United States military. And at their funeral the hoarp guard pays them and their family a final tribute. The purpose is is, you know, to honor with dignity. I want them to see a ceremony that was provided at the highest respect. 45,000 square miles here, San Francisco, san jose, sacramento area. And even about five hours south. We serve as probably one million vets and retirees. Funny rals and colors honors. And yet as they go through each step and each movement, they are fueled by reasons that are both patriotic and personal. Thats my grandfather. Were doing something special. It is what gets them through the difficult moments. The emotions are always going to be there. Its human nature. How we show them is what we strive not to do during the the honor is not ours. When we show else thats bringing attention toward ourselves that for that day and that home its not about us. Just because you dont see it doesnt mean youre not feeling it. Absolutely. Think about your own family and that hits you at the heart. Do your best for them. Weve had times where airmen have cried during the ceremony and it just happens. It happens but they work through it. And then practice for the next one. Memorial day keeps them busy. But it is a day that they look forward to. Its a bit humbling obviously but its a culmination of everything. You know, its the one day that well, not only do we shine but i mean, all those that came before us shine. That we the whole nation pays respect for it. Wed love to see the flag out every day for every service member, for every fallen member but memorial day i mean, that i guess probably brings us a little bit of joy to no that everyone is remembering.
