I think this is a great idea, they do something similar to this in England on 11/11. Everybody stops for the 60 seconds , even the FM style radio stations. I have to say the Brits know their history much better than our citizens know ours. Seems like this remembrance would be a good start, and a reminder that freedom is not free.

I stop every day of my life for a few thankful moments to remember the veterans.

"...asking all Americans worldwide to pause for 60 seconds at 3 p.m. local time May 31..."

If there were poetry in justice, Michael Moore would succumb to his diet at that exact moment.

"White House officials are asking all Americans worldwide to pause for 60 seconds at 3 p.m. local time May 31 – Memorial Day – to honor America's fallen and to recognize veterans and today's servicemen and women, particularly those serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. "

Never Forget that Freedom is Not Free.
Memorial Day is a Day of Remembrance.
Enjoy your long weekend but honor those who gave their all.

I finished the fire academy and will be fitted for my reserve fire fighting gear next week. I am so proud to have the opportunity to be a reserve.

Wonderful post, armywife.

Thanks for the ping, Tonk.

With so many Memorial Day sales going on, I would hope that all stores will make a loudspeaker announcement that a moment of silence is being observed to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice in battle, and for all the men and women who serve today and who have previously served.

We owe them so much. I pray for them every day of my life.

Thanks for the Post. The number of local WWII Veterans passing each week here in Eureka Ca is stunning as Humboldt county has a population of 126,000. My long time friend George V. passed away Tuesday morning. George was a baker in the Navy during the war. My two brothers and one sister served as did my two brother-in-laws...

Does it count if we go to a Memorial Day ceremony at 6:30 in the morning instead?
