For today, Memorial Day
I come from a family that has done its share, both my grandfathers were in WW I, my father was in WW II, my uncle was in the Korean War. This essay captures our duty today to the memory of all that have gone before to protect our freedom, overseas so that we would not have to endure the horrors of war at home. Because of their sacrifices we have never had to experience day after day of 9/11 multiple times a day as Europe and Japan did. Granted Germany and Japan were the aggressors and the rest of Europe the victims, but without their blood, honor, and valor, we would have ultimately been the victims.
Read the essay, and pause and give thanks either in prayer or a moment of gratitude to what all our veterans, dead and alive have done for us.
