"Unbelievable"
That Is All That I Can Say For Last Wednesday 1/29/2014
In spite of the rain and cold, we had more than 100 dealers to show up and set up tents.
What was even more surprising is that more than 1000 customers showed up to shop in the rain.
It was raining at sunrise, and was raining at sunset (It rained off and on all day)
Below are a few photo taken that day.

The Last American "KIA" In Vietnam
Is Buried In Arlington National Cemetery
![]() William Benedict Nolde August 8, 1929 – January 27, 1973 Colonel United States Army. Buried on February 5th. 1973 |
![]() WILLIAM B. NOLDE
COLONEL US ARMY KOREA, VIETNAM DATE OF BIRTH: 08/08/1929 DATE OF DEATH: 01/27/1973 Click On Photo For "Find A Grave" Memorial Webpage |
Born in Menominee, Michigan, Nolde was a professor of military science at Central Michigan University before joining the army. As an officer, he served in both the Korean War and the Vietnam War, acting as an advisor to the South Vietnamese forces in the latter.
Nolde, having reached the rank of colonel, was killed by shell fire at An Loc, eleven hours before the cessation of all hostilities in accordance with the Paris Peace Accords. He was the last official American combat casualty of the war - the 45,914th confirmed death during the conflict.
While other Americans lost their lives after the truce was enacted, these were not recorded as combat casualties. During his time in the armed forces, he had accumulated four medals, including the Bronze Star and Legion of Merit.
Nolde was buried on February 5, 1973 in Section 3 of Arlington National Cemetery (his widow Joyce was buried beside him in 2005). As the last official combat casualty, his funeral was attended by 'considerably more brass than the funeral of a field-grade officer would normally command' including General Alexander Haig.
At the Central Michigan University the William B. Nolde Scholarship was established in memory of the Colonel by students, family and friends. The William B. Nolde Lecture Series takes place every two years and invites various politicians, professors and military leaders to lecture on the importance of leadership.
Notable guest speakers have included Lt. Col. Gary Brito, who participated in Operation Iraqi Freedom I and Operation Iraqi Freedom III; and Col. R. John Cully Jr., a retired Vietnam Helicopter Pilot, special forces member, previous commander of the Special Intelligence Squadron from 1988-1997 and graduate of Central Michigan University.
