It was exactly two months ago that 4 Marines and 1 Sailor were gunned down in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Today, over 80,000 are expected to attend "Tribute on the River". There will be a parade starting at 2:30 PM and at 4:30 PM the Navy's Blue Angels will do a fly over in the missing man formation. Onward to the River where entertainment will include Brantley Gilbert, Harry Connick, Jr., Trace Adkins and several others. Samuel L. Jackson, a Chattanooga native, will be the host of this event.
#NoogaStrong - the people of Chattanooga, the people of Tennessee and the people all across the US should not forget what happened to these 5 men.

Such a tragic event should never be forgotten. It's good that so many celebrities are participating.

They will be having more 'salues/memorials' to them over the years. One family lives in Chattanooga, so they really are close to things.
