--Vagabond walks into the bar with a clear plastic storage case. He walks up to the Bar and places the container on the bar top. Opening up the container he pulls out a plaque of dark oak and polished bronze. Placing it on a empty table he walks back to Chihawk and orders a shot of twelve year old scotch. He picks up the shot as he reaches into the container and retrieves a single long stem red rose. He then walks back to the table and reads the inscription on the plaque.—
To those who have gone before use,
And those who soon will follow.
To our friends,
And our enemies,
Who on the field of battle gave there all,
So that the dreams of there people,
May be remembered and fulfilled,
To this day of days.
We salute you!!!!
--He then raises the glass to the sky and with two words places it on the table still full along with the rose beside it.—
Thank You.
--He then turns and leaves. Leaving the nearly full container of roses behind.--
