Why We Have Monday Off!

Hello my dear friends. With Memorial Day approaching and everyone making plans for the long weekend ahead, please take a moment to remember why we observe Memorial Day. As of May 15, 2012 6433 U.S. Service Members have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. 4474 in Iraq and 1959 in Afghanistan. Of those, 4051 were Army, 1345 were Marines, 196 Navy, 136 Air Force, 211 Reservists. So, properly display your flag and please take a moment to remember those who have made the supreme sacrifice, paid the ultimate price so you and I can live in peace. In the immortal words of Ronald Reagan...
“You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children’s children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.” God Bless America
