We Remember

Please remember to thank the Vet that you know and the remember the ones that have fallen. When you speak your mind freely, when you vote, when you sleep in your bed safe and sound, you have a Vet to thank for that.

Most of us will never understand or being to comprehend the sacrifices that these men and women have made. They leave behind their babies, their homes, their calm and peaceful lives. They give their lives for the sake of a flag; to keep flying over a nation of both grateful and apathetic, deserving and spoiled, enlightened and ignorant. They give you that right to either honor their sacrifice or spit on the flag.

We, the People, this nation, is a by-product of their sacrifice, of their blood and tears. Yet, we seem to care more about Paris Hilton's new beau or what Matt Damon thinks. We tend to put these clueless, beautiful morons on a throne and forget the real heroes. These lucky, misplaced idols would have NOTHING without the sacrifice of the Brave "Nobodies".

Both of my grandfathers served in WWII, and I don't think I ever properly thanked them for their service. It's too late now. Make sure you don't make that mistake! Regardless of what you think of the reasons our nation goes to war or agree with the cause, NEVER turn your back on these solders.

THANK YOU.
