Memorial Day - A Time To Reflect

Memorial Day is a time of reflection.  We honor those who have given their lives in the service of their country.  We honor those who served during peacetime and conflict - both at home and abroad.

Since my Dad's death in March we have interred him in his final resting place - a Veteran's National Cemetery in our area  It was a moving and memorable experience. Dad was a US Naval officer and served over twenty years as a pilot.

This Memorial Day make it a point to reflect on the sacrifice of those who paid the ultimate price. Visit the grave site of a loved one who served in the armed forces. Tell your children and grandchildren about the heroes you know personally. Share the history and background of a few of the more memorable conflicts and wartime stories that might be of interest to them.




\Here are a couple of my past Memorial Day posts to enjoy -
