We have many war dead from our wars, the most I believe were in the war between the states. Each was a person who had a family, friends and cohorts who morned for them and a nation which should be grateful for their ultimate sacrifice. Most of us know someone for whom this day is sacred. As individuals and as a nation we should never forget them. Frankly, it should be a total stand down day not one of merriment, sales and parties.
Thanks for the opportunity to get that stated.
Thank Nixon for the three-day weekend. Memorial Day is ALWAYS May 30! Remember that on the graves of your loved ones.
