Memorial Day,....

Always remember,.....

NEVER FORGET!

And as I say every year: if you live near a VA Medical Center, stop by and visit an ailing veteran.  By him or her lunch.  But always remember to say "Thank You for Your Service!"

On Memorial Day,.....

A few things to remember,

• Today isn't just "the official start of the summer season"
• It isn't just an excuse to grill burgers, hot dogs and chicken with family and friends
• And it CERTAINLY isn't an excuse for high-school graduates to drive to Wildwood and make drunken asses of themselves!!

However,

• It is time to honor those who came before us, from the birth of our nation to the current global hostilities.
• Whether they came willingly, or were chosen, given a gun and told "keep America safe!" they did it.
• You can fly flags and place wreathes on memorials and cemeteries. But even better, go to a VA Hospital and buy a vet "a cup o' Joe." It the least you can do for for someone who did more with less and keeps you free even to this day.
  

Not Just Burgers and Dogs Today,...
