Memorial Waterways
What a WONDERFUL idea!
Subject: Memorial Waterways?
Cruising News: Good Morning, Claiborne
After arriving safely in Vero Beach for the winter, thanks to your books, cruisernet, and weather underground, I rode the Greyhound back up to Belhaven to retrieve a car for use while we\'re here. I spent a lot of time on I-95, a large portion of which is named the Purple Heart Memorial Highway. I know that many of the bridges on the ICW are named in honor of someone (George Munson) or something (Memorial Bridge). As I was driving on I-95 I wondered if anyone had ever tried to get portions of the ICW named and signed as Memorial Waterways? I also knew that if anyone knew about it, it would be you. As someone whose son has made the ultimate sacrifice and has posthumously been awarded the Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and others, it would be most meaningful and gratifying to cruise the AICW with the addition of signage indicating the nation\'s honor and respect for those who kept us free. I would like to hear your thoughts on the subject of Memorial Waterways.

Cruising News: As a veteran of 24 years military service I fully support this idea. As a veteran of commuting for several years on sections of the Blue Star Memorial Highway in the DC area, I don't think we can stand for the waterways to be that dangerous/neglected.
