Memorial Day 2011

No folks, yesterday was not about the cookout and the beer.

Too many people have forgotten that yesterday was about fallen service members .... everything that you hold dear is because of them and because of those who have stepped up to take their place.

No matter what your political or philosophical stance, you owe the right to express that stance to them .... do the right thing, honor their memories .. and thank a veteran that has not gone on for their service today and everyday.

As for me, I think there is only one higher calling than serving your country, and to all those who have made that sacrifice, thank you ... we all know that only another service member can truly understand the sacrifice, but those who have not served can at least show their appreciation..

I miss you Dad.
