texdinar Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 Memorial Day....A time to remember all those men and women that have served thier country, helping to keep us free. Many paying the ultimate price, making the ultimate sacrifice. WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, Desert storm I and desert Storm 2. And all of the men and woman that are currently serving, They are doing the things needed to keep us safe and for our continued freedom, so when you stop and consider what is Memorial Day, it;s not just a day off work, a three day weekend, or a excuse to have a backyard cookout and/or party, or to spend weekend at the lake. Remember the real reason and meaning of Memorial day. Remembering those that have served and that some of those that gave their life in the service of their country. I would like to say thank you and may GOD Bless each and everyone, and those that have gone on I pray that you are resting in the buxom of the Lord. So the next time you meet a veteran or active duty personnel, be sure to tell them THANK YOU and shake their hand and say a prayer for them, I never miss the chance to tell a vet thank you for your service, and I will continue to do so and not just on memorial Day, but every day. And I encourage all of you who read this to do the same.....Now can I get an AMEN.....and can I count on you!......Jeff P.S. I wish to extend a heart felt gratitude to each and every veteran and active duty soldier here on the boards at DV and a warm thanks to you. I wish I could shake your hand and look you in the eye, but this will have to suffice. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphy20 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I'm a Vietnam veteran. When I think of Memorial Day, I dont think of myself. Instead I honor all the brave young troopers I served with over there who didnt make it back. Jeff P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
