Prattville Dragoons Camp 1524 Represent SCV in Trinity Presbyterian Remembrance Service for our Nation's Fallen

Members of the Prattville Dragoons represented the Sons of Confederate Veterans at the Remembrance Service for our Nation's Fallen in All Wars on Sunday May 26th as part of Memorial Day observances.  Camp 1524 1st Lt Harold Grooms placed the wreath as part of the service and Quartermaster Bill Myrick and compatriot Tyrone Crowley were also in attendance representing the camp and the SCV.  The SCV wreath was of magnolia leaves and included a Confederate ribbon bow.  Bill reported that the wreaths placed from the Confederate related heritage organizations including the SCV, UDC and others were more numerous than all the other wreaths placed at the service.  Retired Col. John Eidsmoe was the guest speaker and his presentation touched on many subjects facing the nation today including political correctness and the rewriting of history.  Col. Eidsmoe retired from the USAF as a Lt. Col. and from the Alabama State Defense Force as a Colonel and from the Mississippi State Guard as a Chaplain (Colonel).  He attended the Air Command and Staff College and Air War College at Maxwell AFB and is a Professor of Law at Oak Brook College of Law and Government Policy.  A very learned man, he holds seven degrees in law, theology, history and political science and has published sixteen books including Historical and Theological Foundations of Law and Christianity and the Constitution and is an ordained Lutheran pastor.
