10 historical facts about Memorial Day
let their death be not in vain! let us all learn SOMETHING from them.
I thought it was about Obamaphones and food stamps, free health care and open borders. Whadda know?
Went to White House.gov to see if the POS POTUS even acknowledged Memorial Day and watched a short video of him darting his eyes back and forth to the teleprompter while he spoke of only those who died in Afganistan as if it was the only war in which US troops were lost. He actually is planning a visit to Arlington today where I am sure he will use the opportunity to say how great he was for supposedly ending the war in that country.
We have the Air Force Academy, Fort Carson, Peterson Field, NORAD, Schriever AFB, and a plethora of military families in our area. I have ample opportunities to thank the members and their families for their service to our country. Obviously, the ones in uniform have the greater responsibility and danger, but the spouse and kiddos play an important role, and I shake the hands and thank each of them for their part in the scheme of things. I also add; "YOU are the ONLY reason I pay my taxes with a smile on my face!" They seem to appreciate that sentiment and every one also reply with humility and gratitude for the chance to serve.
I would suggest others who have the opportunity to thank individual service members to do so in order to bolster the morale of our fighting forces.
If ever a picture was worth 1000 words, this one excels. Many Thanks.
Only two words today:
THANK YOU!
Amen.

Bless you Stilt for the post today!
Memorial Day:
In Memory of Many,

Thank you! Salute!
Amen.
