Thanks, Great photos!
I particularly liked the mix of the modern with "victorian" era.
This gives us on the east coast food for thought for the future.

But ya gotta miss a few ever' now & agin!
Sagebrush Burns, is that YOU marchin' jus' to the right of Col WF Cody?

Bvt Col Sagebrush Burns and the rest of the Color Guard,
Very well done.
I would have liked to have seen this in person.
As pointed, this might be a good idea for the other departments/regional shoots. Have the local NG or Reserve carry the colors, supported by GAF members on the flanks.
