Here are some ground rules for this Memorial Day Weekend:
1. Don't wish me a Happy Memorial Day - there is nothing happy about brave men and women dying.
2. It's not a holiday or a sale, it's a day of remembrance.
3. You want to know the true meaning, visit your local Cemetery, talking with a Gold Star Family or visiting a VA Hospital.
4. Say a prayer, and then raise a glass and thank God for the men/women who died while fighting in a war.
P.S. DO NOT "Thank" a living Veteran for his/her service... they'll get honored on Veterans' Day in November and every single other day, since they are still alive
This is a time to remember that the true price of Freedom is spent in the lives that defend it. Honor those brave souls that have, in a moment of courage, given the last full measure of themselves in order to secure Liberty.
