Memorial Day

[LD57]

My heart is with all the veterans and families that experienced losses in all conflicts. We are free to do what we do because of their sacrifice, and the least we can do is show that support. If the flag on my Ranger offends you, F off.

Perfect.

We went to Arlington a few years ago, it was heartbreaking seeing row after row of gravestones for young men.
My parents each had a brother who joined the Marines after Pearl Harbor and never came home.

In Flanders Fields
John McCrae

In Flanders fields the poppies blow,
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

I’ve been there. It’s definitely a moving experience.
