Thank you for this post and not saying something silly like “Happy Memorial Day.” For those with personal attachments and association to the holiday, it is a day of reflection, gratitude, and mourning.

Yes!! Thanks for posting. I've always supported Veterans and the 2nd but when I met my fiance a few years ago, I met her son, a combat wounded Marine who lost his legs to an IED in Afghanistan back in 2011. He spent his 21st birthday recovering at Walter Reed Military Medical Center. He's come such a long way over the years.
I can't say it any better than this:

Many forget that this Weekend is not just for Beer and BBQ. Remembrance of the Sacrifice is the reason.

Well yes.
My problem as a outsider however is getting worse and worse, CUZ the ones i owe the most, well sadly there are fewer and fewer of those around, and soon they will all be gone.
Precious few people left in the world i would absolutely want to shake hands with if i got the chance.
I do pay tribute when i can, most memorable time was probably that day in Normandy back in the 80ties.
Sadly all the people i was there with, did not get why i put coins on headstones.........
And worst of all, and i am not afraid to admit, back then i was a ignorant savage,,,,,, but it would seem not in every way.

Ft. McPherson National Cemetery is where I attend the ceremony every Memorial Day. It will be my final resting place.
