A Lesson for All of Us

... I took my kindergarten grandson to the National Cemetery today (Memorial Day) and, enroute, tried to explain to him what it is, what it means, etc, etc, etc. Upon arrival, he was very quiet and then said softly ........."So many ......".

A very touching moment for an old soldier ..................
