Today is a day to remember those who gave their lives in order to protect the freedoms we enjoy. Today, we honor those who have fallen in service to our nation. I hope all of you have a great Memorial Day, complete with friends, family, barbeque and beer. But take some time today to reflect on the sacrifices of those who are no longer with us.

Thanks so much for posting these! I wanna so hug all the parents and spouses and children of fallen troops, especially today.
I do wish I found a way to communicate with them better, I wish I knew what to say, what to do, other than "I'm sorry."…
