I heard a Vet on the radio this morning. He said that Memorial day is not for the troops. They feel it every day. Memorial Day is for the civilians. It is for the people who dont know anyone who has been in combat, or die in combat.
Today is my day to remember the troops. Think about them, and for whatever reason they go into combat, respect their sacrifice.
I do not attempt to measure myself against the bravery and loyalty of a solider. What makes them choose to do what they do... what drives them is beyond my definition of personal sacrifice, civic duty, personal responsibility.
Today I am thinking about the troops.
