Thanks to Banjer for the reminder about what Memorial Day is... a day to remember those who fought and died in service to our country. I had a Father and two Uncles who enlisted immediately after Pearl Harbor was attacked. They thought it was the right thing to do. Through the rest of their lives they continued to think they did the right thing. What peace of mind it must give to know that you did what you believed in, no matter the pain or sacrifice involved...to feel that you played some part in defending the people you love, and in liberating millions of others from subjection, mass execution, or enslavement.

And to know that nothing and no one can take that feeling away from you, ever again.
