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. Moore’s body was never claimed by family, and very little is known about him, so the public was invited to attend his funeral. About 150 people showed up to give Moore a proper send off Tuesday afternoon at Beaufort National Cemetery. Bob Sofaly/The Island News
