A similar trip was just undertaken for a group of approximately 200 veterans veter-ans from North Carolina. One of the veterans, former for-mer Sergeant Fred Logan who served in the South Pacific and had his trip paid for by a local Boys and Girls Club, said, "This was the best thing that ever happened to me." The veterans who went to the memorial from North Carolina toured it for two hours, met comrades com-rades in arms, mourned the 400,000 war dead who would never see it and the millions of veterans veter-ans for whom it was built headlights can see the following: fol-lowing: Dark Clothing, 50 feet; Red Clothing, 80 feet; Yellow Clothing. 120 feet; White Clothing, 180 feet; Reflective Trimmed Clothing, Cloth-ing, 500 feet. How long does it take for a motorist to stop a car? With safe tires and brakes on dry pavement, the critical visibility distance dis-tance (including reaction and braking time) of a motorist mo-torist going 30 mph is 72 feet. A bicyclist or pedestrian pedestri-an wearing dark clothing (and if you look around, most jackets and coats are dark), will not be seen in time for the driver to stop. A motorist traveling at 50 mph needs at least 185 feet to stop in ideal conditions. MffltlN iuSSfiS Finejf ifts to celebrate fond memories Only In CottonTree Square (801) 373-1000 2230 N.

"They were feeling the appreciation so long overdue over-due in this a final tribute to the men--boys then, really, in their teens and twenties-who answered the call and saved the world. Think of it." said Jeff Miller who organized that trip. "I look at it this way, " Miller said. "Everything good I have in my life is because of them-I mean everything. "We wanted to take the veterans there to the memorial who had not been there-that was the number one.thing-and who had financial or physical phys-ical limitations, or both" The Utah trip is being organized by Our Unsung Heroes, a Utah non-profit corporation and is being funded by the people of Utah. "We are also looking for some volunteers who would like to accompany the veterans on the trip and act as escorts," said McSweeney. If you are interested and would like more details, please call McSweeney at 801427-1397. According to the Federal Fed-eral Highway Administration Administra-tion Safety Department, "Wearing white or light-colored light-colored clothing may not provide enough information informa-tion for motorists to recognize, rec-ognize, locate and react quickly to pedestrians and bicyclists." Reflectorized clothing greatly increases visibility by reflecting light from the headlights back to the driver. For walking, jogging jog-ging or biking from dusk to dawn, make sure to wear clothing with reflective reflec-tive materials for your safety.
