CUMMING, GA A West Forsyth High School and West Point graduate recently spoke to the members of the Cumming Chapter 1030 of the Vietnam Veterans of America.
Earls, who recently returned to Georgia following his time in the Army, spoke to the members of Cumming Chapter 1030 of the Vietnam Veterans of America on Feb. 2.
The former Airborne Ranger-Qualified Captain told the veterans that serving as commander of the elite Guard Unit of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery was the honor of a lifetime. With 250 thousand headstones of heroes and those buried at the Tomb of the Unknown, Earls said, It was the hills of Arlington that gave me a deeper appreciation for this country than I can ever explain. I feel humbled even talking about it.
