Memorial Day 2011
Here we are upon another 3-day week-end “holiday.” Most people look forward to these so they can get out of town, maybe go camping with the family. Have a HUGE BBQ with their friends. What’s sad is that even in such a huge Military town, there are so many just meandering about now even realizing that this is a moment for pause. A moment to talk with our children about family/friends/fellow service members that we may know that have paid the ultimate price for our continued freedoms. Not even a single 3-year old should be left clueless about what this day means to our country and why we “celebrate” the fallen.
