Memorial Day

May. 29, 2006 / Comments
Today is Memorial Day here in the United States. 2,464 of our troops have died in Iraq, and there are still over 130,000 troops over there and thousands more in Afghanistan. Each has their own story, their own friends, and their own family members who worry about their well being every day. Whether you support this war or not, I think it's very important for us to remember all of them today. All of those who have put their personal lives on hold and put the courage forward to fight for their own country, regardless of their personal beliefs.

A simple thank you seems hardly sufficient for what you do, but none the less; Thanks. We hope each of you comes back home safely.
