Guests were invited to "take a
soldier" home with them. Little toy soldiers were set up on display
and all guests were encouraged to take a soldier home with them and
display it in a prominent place. The goal is to allow the soldiers
to be a gentle reminder each day of the sacrifices our military men
and women made to assure freedom of religion, speech and assembly.
