I glad someone beat me to the punch posting this. I'm also a member of cavalryscouts.org and one of the Scouts is in the town where this happened and is taking up a collection for both the kid's DC trip as well as old unit patches, challenge coins, and things of a patriotic nature in support of him. Not so much as a protest but showing that at least his local Vets and some of internet Vets are with him. If any of you guys are interested in this endeavor PM me and as soon as I get the details where to send the stuff, I'll let you know. This kind of stuff angers me to no end. When I was in school, we said the pledge, then stood at attention for the playing of the anthem. I'm sonfused where we got off track...

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
