As an infantryman with the 101st Airborne Div. in Vietnam 1969, I have memories I sometimes would rather not have. But let us not forget them that are "forever young" in that war and all others that came before it and after it. It seems that during the last few years the media spends more time on active servicemen and veterans (not that they don't deserve it) than on those that already gave their lives for this country and what Memorial Day is all about. I wish they would cover more of the great sacrifices and accomplishments some of these men and women made fighting and dying in the wars they took part in. There are so many stories out there. It seems like this part of history is not being taught to our kids like it should be in our school system. When the flag goes by you in the parade, remember those who did not come home.
A safe Memorial Day to all!
