Memorial Day ...


"We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

(Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863)

Thought it was absolutely awesome to see/hear the 250,000+ at the Indy 500 fall absolutely silent in respect when Taps was played.

We caught a little bit of the National Memorial Day concert with Gary "Lt. Dan" Senise tonight. Powerful stuff.

I go to Arlington every Memorial Day to honor the memory of my many fallen friends.
