Memorial Day
twentyfiveLiving well and enjoying my retirement
Remember the real reason for this holiday, America’s Fallen Heroes
They gave their last full measure of devotion so we must honor their sacrifices and thank them for their service.
Don’t forget that the debt is owed as well to
Gold Star Families, that can never be repaid, as there is nothing that will ever fill that empty chair at celebrations like this day.

The streets of heaven are lined with the heros that we honor on this day. They are smiling while watching us exercise the freedoms that they fought and died for and while our country may not be perfect, they know that their sacrifice was worth it.
My eternal gratitude goes out to them and their families and fellow service members that are still here on earth keeping their legacies alive.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

^ Really, do you have to bring your dumb little grudge into a thread that shouldn't at all cause a fight? Show some class.
