..........Memorial Day.

I think this picture captures a great deal of the feeling associated with Memorial Day. I can't even imagine the feeling of such a loss. All we can do is pause and give our thanks for the service and sacrifice to our nation that all these brave men and women have given. They and their families deserve our greatest praise and respect. I hope we will all teach our children that Memorial Day is not just about a day off from work, a great sale at the car dealership, a cookout, or an auto race - it's about bravery, duty, honor, and sacrifice. God bless all our service men and women who choose to protect us, and bless the souls of those who have preceeded us. I challenge us all to support our troops whenever and however the occasion presents itself.
