Memorial Day

By the time I hit "Submit Topic" it will be Monday, so it's time for my annual rant about Memorial Day. As you all get together for family or neighborhood barbecues, or sit back and watch the auto races, please take a few minutes to spend in quiet reflection of the meaning of Memorial Day. It's the day we set aside out of each year to remember, honor, and give thanks to those who answered the call of duty and who gave their lives protecting our Constitution and our freedoms as Americans.

 

Memorial Day is not the day to thank me or or Shelbyluv or any of the other veterans on this forum for our service. We have our own day, later in the year. Those of us here who served somewhere in combat ... we came home. We're thankful for that. Memorial Day is the day when we are supposed to honor our comrades in arms who fell in the line of duty, and who came home in a box.
