Thank you to the men and women of our armed forces who gave their lives for these colors...

No matter your political persuasion, I hope you will stop for a minute today, and remember the men and women who have given their lives in an effort to protect the peoples of this and other countries. If you don’t respect the wars they’ve fought in , respect the bravery and courage they displayed to put themselves in harms way so you and I wouldn’t have to.  Every soldier that goes to war realizes that he or she may not make it back alive, yet they go, and they carry the hopes and prayers of their friends and family with them. If you know a war vet of any age, give ‘em a big hug today and tell them thank you for their loyal service to this great country that we live in.

We can never repay that debt, but the least we can do is take time from the cook outs and pool parties to remember those that have fought and died in our stead.

I personally want to say a big thank you to all our vets that sacrificed their lives in service of our nation, and my heartfelt condolences to their framilies who have to live with the loss.  And I want to take this oppotunity to do a small part today to remember those we’ve lost. If you have a friend or family member that has lost their lives in battle, post their name here, along with your fondest memory of them. God bless America…
