Mrs. Cedar's hometown of Lincoln Maine has identified 950 local veteran graves they hope to honor next Saturday December 14, 2024.
Sadly, as of this morning they have sponsors for only 38. (Now 56 still a long way from 950)
The Lincoln Police Department needs a little help if you can spare $17 or share the following link to sponsor one wreath.

Lincoln is typical small town USA. It is also the home of Master Sergeant Gary Gordon the medal of honor recipient portrayed in the film Black Hawk Down.
Gordon graduated from the same Lincoln Maine high school as Mrs Cedar's mother Mattanawcook Academy Class of 1978.
It would be awesome if they could raise enough money to place wreaths on each area veteran's grave this Christmas.
The Lincoln PD goal of 950 wreaths is a pretty ambitious let's help them out.
Cedar's Take - You will notice that Meckburbia by Cedar Posts is without pop-ups and crazy clickbait. It's not a revenue source for me however its kinda hard to watch a small town police department struggle to get a community project of the ground.
I've seen this before in Lincoln. The people who call the north woods home don't have a lot of spare capital. There's not a big corporate sponsor who will step in at the last minute. So I'll keep pushing this until they at least get to 100 or time runs out.
We must’ve lowered the bar pretty low in this bitch with all these fat slobs. How you get to that magazine with that beer belly hiding your weewee?
ReplyDeleteU tb the big central guy?
DeleteProbably
DeleteChill with that hate on fat people. We have kids to feed. We are happy the way we are and give love if you need it, lil skinny.
ReplyDeleteKids have more to eat if you stop eating it all.
DeleteWe have depression and can’t smoke weed as cops. No test for pizza or ribs, besides the wellness exam. Let us live!
DeleteFat cops are in the wrong profession. I don’t hate them, but it’s not respectable standards. Even convicts work out a few times.
ReplyDeleteFat happens it is not all what you eat or drink. I know one guy who was super fit ran 10k all the time even a bunch triathlons blew out his knee chasing a bad guy across a parking lot. 6 months rehab 2 years later could barely climb the stairs in the LEC parking deck. It happens.

ReplyDeleteYou need to understand the brain of cops. Several develop alcohol problems which slowly put on weight. Many cops get PTSD and are afraid to go outside. Many cops just stop caring about things or themselves. These events lead towards long term obesity.
I do concur that obesity needs to be identified and recorded for IA suspensions. You either lose weight or your job at CMPD. We are all in this together like a gang or prison family. We all share each other’s women like Rooks and Aquino.
A fat belly is like not wearing your vest or not loading your gun. If you don’t respect yourself, then others will follow that behavior.
Y'all need to step up and help Cedar out with his request. The link above shows they now have only 61 wreaths.
