Great photo. Very symbolic with the eagle watching over our fallen heroes.

Our elected reps, minus a few veterans, have no idea what these brave patriots did for our freedoms.

I spent 22 years active duty, but today is their day. I hate when people mix Veterans and Memorial day.

This day, we bow our heads and remember them. Here in the South, this used to be called Decoration Day. It’s still a good tradition.

Tomorrow, pick a few flowers, or buy some small flags, and go through a cemetery, placing those items on the graves of those who died in OUR service.

All gave some and some gave ALL.
