Last weekend, competitors from Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina hit the waters at Lake Tobesofkee for a sailing challenge. The athletes are members of the Special Olympics. Special Olympics Georgia hosted 45 teams for a Special Regatta. There are different levels of competition, so each athlete was judged according to their responsibility on the sail boats.

The breezes were brief and sailing was difficult but everyone seemed to have a good time anyway.

Last Friday, September 17, was National POW/MIA Recognition Day. It was a special remembrance day you won't find on most calendars. But the sacrifices of soldiers who were once prisoners of war, or remain missing in action are not being forgotten here in the states.

An outdoor memorial to Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action opened at the Warner Robins Air Force Base Museum of Aviation in October 2008.

The inscription on the memorial reads:

"We dedicate this memorial, unbinding the American Eagle from her chain, in the enduring faith that all POW/MIA "chains" will be unbound and their journey home will begin with God's speed. "Bring them home" is our proclamation to the world with this dedication, as it has always been our vow before today, we wait with an endless, uncompromising vigilance for your return home to your loved ones, to your nation, to finally find peace, we stand with open arms, shoulder-to-shoulder dedicating this memorial honoring your patriotism, sacrifice and legacy. - YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN."

Veterans salute the posting of the colors at the start of the annual POW/MIA ceremony Thursday at the Museum of Aviation at Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins.
