Flashback - Operation Iraq Liberation by Tom Baxter, April 5, 2003

It's Time to Come Home

On March 19th, 2007 organizers and volunteers commemorated the 4th anniversary of the Iraq War by setting up and displaying 3200+ luminaries around the paths and walkways of Lake Ella in downtown Tallahassee.

Below is a pictorial essay of the event starting just before dusk and extending 'til after sundown.
