“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.” – General George S. Patton

True, except for those whose family or friend was draped in the Stars and Stripes, may they rest in peace and always be remembered and revered by a grateful nation.

Excellent, Gene. Thank you.

Ditto that Gene....we are a very fortunate people to live in the US under the protection of the best military in history. I would be remiss to also give a sincere appreciation for the peace officers of our country who died in the line of duty. Peace officer week is not as well recognized as Memorial Day but it is celebrated during the Memorial Day week. 🇨🇮

Thankful in remembrance....
