Thank you for your ultimate sacrifice. +RIP+ http://www.usmemorialday.org/backgrnd.html "Traditional observance of Memorial day has diminished over the years. Many Americans nowadays have forgotten the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day. At many cemeteries, the graves of the fallen are increasingly ignored, neglected. Most people no longer remember the proper flag etiquette for the day. While there are towns and cities that still hold Memorial Day parades, many have not held a parade in decades. Some people think the day is for honoring any and all dead, and not just those fallen in service to our country. "
Remember the sacrifices made, to keep this country free. A growing portion of our population doesn't even know or care about US history though.
My Great-Grandfather fought in WWI My Grandfather fought in WWII My Father died in Vietnam. Decoration Day should never be forgot.
