I grew up in a Navy town, my brother-in-law is in the military, and I was reared with strong, patriotic values, so today I pause to say thank you...
Thank you to those who have given their lives so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we too often take for granted.
Thank you to those who protect these freedoms today and are making the future safer for our children.
Thank you to those who helped me as I grew to understand what it means to be free and for instilling in me the values of "...one nation under God,with liberty and justice for all."
MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA....today and always!
There are some great Memorial Day tributes here:
