Today, Memorial Day, is one of America’s most solemn observances. We honor the men and women who died serving and defending our country—(unlike Veterans Day, the day to honor all veterans.)

Keep noon and 3 p.m. local time in mind today. At noon, all flags lowered to half-staff should be raised completely for the remainder of the day.
And at 3 p.m., a National Moment of Remembrance takes place. President Bill Clinton started the tradition in 2000.

Some Gave All...

Thank you seems such a small thing to say when we think that perhaps without all our military members over all the years, we would not be the strong AMERICA that we are. Let's PRAY for our military members everyday. Also, we need to PRAY for our country so AMERICA will stay a strong nation.

THANK YOU, ALL OUR MILITARY SERVING TODAY!!!!!!!!

When my son is in uniform, someone usually comes up to shake his hand and say "thanks", it gives him the chills and such pride..that people take the time to say thanks..it is not a little thing..
a few times, someone has picked up his restaurant bill..(not the whole families,even i could not afford to do that! lol)
just joeys food bill..how awesome is that!
(he will always be "joey" to me!) :thumbup:
