| The crowd loved it when I said that not hearing from Vice President Al Gore was my first lesson in politics and I had to laugh! C-Span spelled my name wrong, but I didn't mind at all!!! |
| Saluting the Veterans for everything they have done for me!!!! I love this, Nikki Mendicino, Activist!!!! I have been called the youngest advocate in the world, a title I wear proudly!!! |

| This is Gerald McCullar in a POW Tiger Cage. He does this to show people how are soldiers are held captive. He is very special and I am so glad that I got to meet him!! |

| These are Vietnamese Soldiers who were at the Rally. Their sign says "Don't forget POW/MIA" |

| This is me and a Vietnamese soldier with his wife. They thanked me for my speech and I asked if I could have my picture taken with them!!!! |


| This is a Vietnamese woman who came up to me right after I made my speech. All she could say to me was "Thank You." She gave me a hug and she cried. I never did learn her name, but she touched me very much and I will never forget her. |
| Nothing could ever take the place of being such a special part of Rolling Thunder!!! I truly understand what it means to be called a brother or a sister and the closeness that everyone shares. Thank you Mr. Muller and Mr. Mendes for allowing me to be involved, I hope that I did what you expected of me. No words could ever, ever explain how much everything you have done means to me. I will never forget....... |
