Never forget the true meaning of Memorial Day. I work for a company comprised almost entirely of former military members, myself included, and today, as we wound down for the long weekend, all I heard was excitement for a long weekend and travel plans etc. Now, I agree with that, I am going to enjoy my weekend as well, I just wanted to put this out there so that we all remembered why exactly we have this long weekend. As this weekend goes by, remember who made it possible, remember all the men and women that died for our freedom. We can never repay that debt, however we can honor their memory and we can also remember all the men and women over seas right now that are fighting to protect the freedom we enjoy.

FLAG AT HALF STAFF UNTIL NOON:
The half-staff position remembers the more than one million men and women who gave their lives in service of their country. At noon their memory is raised by the living, who resolve not to let their sacrifice be in vain, but to rise up in their stead and continue the fight for liberty and justice for all.
