Memorial Day

Lest we forget....

While Memorial Day is a time to get together with friends and family.

A time for barbecues and good times.

Lets never forget the true meaning of the holiday.

Hundreds of thousands of men (and women) have sacrificed their lives in service to us.

Old men and politicians don't die in war.   Young men do.

Young lives cut short in their prime.

They lie in the 4 corners of the globe.

The American Cemetery at Omaha Beach, Normandy France is but one place.

They died so that we may be free.

And perhaps even more nobly....     They died so that the world may be free.
