This ceremony is open to veterans, those with an interest in Civil War history, and the general public. Wearing Civil War era attire is encouraged. The descendants of these veterans are most cordially invited to attend as special guests. A special salute to the management of Oakland Cemetery for their tireless support of veterans and their families for several decades. The joint Honor Guard will be from the Roseville VFW Post 7555 and their partners in the American Legion. Soldiers will also be firing three rounds of musketry.The members of Camp #56 consider this MOH medallion and headstone dedication ceremony an honor, and a fitting tribute for a Union soldier whose service helped preserve the liberties Americans enjoy as a nation today.Please help us to show proper respect to all of these veterans.

Our guest speaker this month is Dr. Rita Louise, who will present a startling and comprehensive examination of ancient myths and legends that describe extraterrestrial visitors and their encounters with humanity since the dawn of time. Organized into a chronology that starts with “in the beginning” and ends with the advent of civilization, it brings together myths from many cultures (including the Sumerians, the Greek, the Maya and the Aborigines of Australia) and explores them in the context of current scientific discoveries. The result is a mind-blowing re-visioning of human origins through close reading of ancient texts.
Dr. Rita’s Bio: Bestselling author, Dr. Rita Louise, is the Founder of the Institute Of Applied Energetics and former host of Just Energy Radio. She is the author of the books Dang! It Was Me All Along?, The Dysfunctional Dance Of The Empath And Narcissist, Stepping Out Of Eden, ET Chronicles: What Myth And Legend Have To Say About Human Origin, Avoiding The Cosmic 2x4, Dark Angels: An Insider’s Guide To Ghosts, Spirits &amp; Attached Entities and The Power Within: A Psychic Healing Primer as well as hundreds of articles that have been published worldwide. She is also the producer of a number of full length and feature videos. Dr. Louise has appeared on film, radio, television and has spoken at conferences around the world covering topics such as health and healing, relationships, ghosts, intuition, ancient mysteries and the paranormal.
