Memorial Day is for Honoring those who made the Ultimate Sacrifice for the rest of us. The rest of us must ensure that their sacrifice was NOT in vain!


We must be prepared to do the same as they did, at any time, at any place!

I couldn't have said it any better.

"Army Of One"
"Semper Fidelis"
"Go Navy"
"Semper Paratus"
"Aim High"

I might be a little off on the sayings but you guys get the picture.

During the NASCAR race today they stopped it at 3:00PM for a minuite or so to honor our military folks and those that have given their life so we can enjoy our freedom!
