Memorial Day - We Must Never Forget
Too many people Memorial Day isthe three-day weekend that kicks off summer vacation for the kids, good weather and barbeque parties.
To all who have served and to the families of those who have served, but most importantly to the families of service men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in support of our nation's interests, it means so much more.
It is a time of remembrance of those lost - remembering the good times and the love and honoring the sacrifice that they made for all of us.
I stand and salute all of the fallen heroes, offer my condolences and respect to the families left behind and pray that the fallen heroes rest in the peace that they fought and died for.
Let us never forget that Memorial Day is more than picnics and parades, it is about honoring the fallen heroes.

Hoka Hey. Semper Fi
My thanks to all who have served, and to those who gave everything to do so.
May God bless all veterans!
It damn sad, when people spend their time on the ridiculous meta and bullshit articles, and can't acknowledge the real hero's of this country.
The only reason that they have the ability to participate in them, is because of our nations service men and women.
Thanks RIO for posting this article. The photos are a powerful reminder of those ''that gave all''.

And we must also keep perspective

Remains of Vietnam War veteran receive special salute
They had come from all over the world.
They just happened to be at Washington's National Airport greeting family members of fallen police officers arriving for an annual dinner when they heard a fallen soldier was coming home.
47 years later, never forget...
Thanks for that link NM ! Very touching. Yes, we should NEVER forget!!
Sadly we'll also be exposed to advertisements for mattresses and cars and other garbage, to "Celebrate" this day with just sales. It makes my blood boil!
My heartfelt thanks for those who gave their lives for this country and my condolences to their families and friends and comrades.
Rest in well deserved peace bros.
