Folks have lost touch with memorial day. Just a reason to get drunk on a boat at a lake. No one taking time to think about why they have a day off. They do not even realize that from the begining of time someone has given up their life so others can march on. It is not about the last war,, or the war before that, or even the war before that. It is really about the lifes lost in each and every war from the start.
