Robert “Bobby” Sellars, left, of the National Association of the Purple Heart, accepts the U.S. flag from Airman First Class Lauia Holman during the funeral for Air Force veteran Thomas Moore, who served in Vietnam.

About 150 people showed up to give Moore a proper send off Tuesday afternoon at Beaufort National Cemetery. Bob Sofaly/The Island News
