We honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of liberty and freedom, and those who came home but have now departed this life. And to all veterans I say 'thank you for your service', though a 'thank you' somehow doesn't seem sufficient. If you have children please take the time to teach them what Memorial Day is all about; if we as parents don't pass along these important lessons then who will? I can tell you that the school system is not doing it, and we are rapidly loosing our knowledge and understanding of history as it pertains to this Republic.
