It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived. - George S. Patton

A day to remember and give thanks for all those who protected our freedoms and country.

None of my immediate or outreaching family died in any wars, though both brothers and many uncles served; WWII and Vietnam, mostly. My roommate has a framed letter here in the living room, signed by Admiral Halsey, regarding a purple heart citation his father (who survived the war), received during action in the Pacific. One doesn't usually have to look too far to find a family connection to the various wars. A couple of my far removed ancestors, served in the civil war as well as some during WWI.
