Observed today, according to the more recent 'holiday on Monday' rule, the traditional U.S. Memorial Day is the 30th of May. I offer this in memory of all, not only those in service of the United States, who served with honor:


I acknowledge the effort you made in honor,
From behind the lines to beyond the front,
Amidst assailing missiles and battle thunder,
Amidst all of the smoke, hearts pounding, and screaming horror.

For each of you slain is one's own unique story:
The parents, the spouse, the child left behind.
Yet your honor is tinged in but hollow glory
If heeded as no more than a long lost memory.
MAY WE ALWAYS REMEMBER

Very nice tribute.... Grin
 

"I have a place where dreams are born, And time is never planned. It’s not on any chart, You must find it with your heart."

Albert Einstein - "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe."

Martin Luther King Jr. - “Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - “There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.”

Mark Twain - “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”

A tear shed for the lost.

I think someone wiser than I said that.
