FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!
Sadly we are losing 1,800 veterans DAILY and 10% are buried in our nation’s 125 national cemeterys… In 2007, an estimated 686,000 died according to yesterday’s AP article. FREEDOM IS NOT FREE IN THE HOME OF THE BRAVE!
I, for one, am thankful for all American troops, both past and present who have served this country. On March 31st, my father-in-law passed away. He was a Marine in the Pacific Theater during World War II and stationed in Guam. He didn’t like to talk about the experiences he had there. At his funeral a Marine honor guard presented my Mother-in-law with the flag that draped his coffin. It was an extremely moving ceremony. So this Memorial Day is a little more poignant for my wife and myself.
I hope you have a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day. I invite you and your readers to my blog to see my Memorial Day tribute.
