I was about to depart the Birmingham area last night when I noticed that the Load One convoy delivering wreaths for Wreaths Across America 2012 would be here today. I met John Elliott and the Load One drivers, Ken and Larry for their stop at the Currie-Jefferson Cemetery for their first Alabama delivery. I followed the trucks to the National Cemetery in Montevallo, AL to help unload there too. After that stop, Larry continued onto Baton Rouge, LA, Ken to Anniston, AL, and I headed north trolling for my next load.
