Memorial Day




On a holiday when most of our Country looks at our Nation's flag and fails to see what she stands for and those of us who know what is lost and all that is gained, let none of us forget those who are still fighting the good fight and their families who remain at home praying for their safe return.

As we wish one another Happy Memorial Day, we, the living breathing souls that truly know what it feels like to be a Nation at War, we remember that it is not about sales or a day off from work, it is about those who have laid down their lives and given the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our Great Nation and the freedom of others......it is about their loved ones who have grieved that great loss. So on this National Day of Remembering, I wish you all a safe Memorial Day.....no matter where you are and who you are sharing it with. May God bless each of you and may God bless America.

    Nice vid, ASW.

    Your point is well taken, too. SN1 (and his whole org) is working all weekend getting his Wing's jets ready for deployment. He says he might get Sunday off. SN2, OTOH, has a four-day weekend... which doesn't quite begin to make up for all those holidays he missed while at sea (he just recently went "over 20," so he's spent a LOT of time at sea).

    So: I hear ya. I hope your Memorial Day weekend is peaceful and relaxing.
