Remembering on Memorial Day

As the day ends and the beach parties and the barbecues are over
let us all remember why we have Memorial Day. Please take a moment
to remember that freedom is not free and that many gave their lives so that
we may remain free.
Thank you to all the soldiers who came home and to all the ones who did not.

Thank you for this beautiful, evocative image displaying the real meaning of Memorial Day. I had an argument with one our columnists (a Turk living in the States) who had written that to most people Memorial Day was about sales. I should link her to this photo. VVV

Quite a tribute to those forced to sacrifice their lives...the follies of humankind with us still. A sad remembrance.
