Thanks Karin. It's ironic that you will find only a very few "leaders," and politicians lying in these fields of the ultimate sacrifice.

Too many have died, many more will die. But on this Memorial Day, we must also remember those that still walk around with the scars of war on their bodies and minds. The government prefers to forget them, but we as Americans cannot. So when citizens attend their picnics, parades, and visit their relatives on the holiday...I hope that they remember the true meaning of why the holiday was created. To honor all those that served and gave their lives for this great country of ours. They died and fought for our freedoms...we, as Americans, need to thank these men/women on this day. And every day!
