Please don't desecrate the graves of the men who died fighting the war against northern aggression with union flags.

To all of those who have served, currently serve - and especially in dedication to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice - thank you. Thank you for serving our country with such an unselfish love and unwavering pride. May we all remember exactly why we honor our service members on Memorial Day, and remind ourselves that while many of us are enjoying the long weekend and spending time with family and friends - these freedoms are not entitled to us. We have these liberties because of the sacrifices given day in and day out by our military. When you see a Veteran or a service member - stop to say thank you. Not just on Memorial Day - but every day.

Not hobby related.

Moved to the proper forum.

And buy a Vet one too. They should make a buy a vet a beer day!

Not many things are as humbling as looking at a National Cemetery. Men and women have lost it all in the name of duty and honor and, as they are laid to the ground, once again they are wearing the uniform of that white tombstone, reminding us all, that even in death, that brave soul is the part of the collective soul of what makes this country great: that so many serve unselfishly, even till death.

May all of you have a peaceful Memorial Day, and please remember the family and loved ones who were left behind. They too are heroes.

Thank you for your service Quinci, and Camille- for those of you who didn't know, Camille is Prior service too. Glad we're all on this side of the fight, and glasses up to those who aren't, past and present. I luckily, or unluckily, lost very few brethren. Here's to them.

Yeah Camille!!! Your are truly a lovely lady!!
