Thanksgiving is for giving thanks for what we have, Memorial day is for thanking those who gave all they had so we can have what we want..
Thank you to all the men and women who have served and currently serve our country. We live in the greatest country in the world because of you. The United States of America. Let us never forget........

Memorial Day
by- C W Johnson We walked among the crosses Where our fallen soldiers lay. And listened to the bugle As TAPS began to play. The Chaplin led a prayer We stood with heads bowed low. And I thought of fallen comrades I had known so long ago. They came from every city Across this fertile land. That we might live in freedom. They lie here 'neath the sand. I felt a little guilty My sacrifice was small. I only lost a little time But these men lost their all. Now the services are over For this Memorial Day. To the names upon these crosses I just want to say, Thanks for what you've given No one could ask for more. May you rest with God in heaven From now through evermore. |

Thanks, Joe and Larry -
This was the first Memorial Day in 35 years that I wasn't in uniform, and it felt really strange. Despite all the long hours, times away from home and multiple deployments it was still the best job in the world! G-d bless America! Lew Silverman 1SG - Army of the United States (Retired)
