But, some gave all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afd_sDNYbpY&feature=related Freedom isn't free http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=r2RwRi2TjA0 Remember those who have fallen to keep us free. Too many. Ed RE: Lest we forget - Kool Kat - 05-28-2012 Spot on Ed. Let's always remember the men and women in uniform who keep us free... and for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. RE: Lest we forget - Iwo Jim - 05-28-2012 I grew up in a small town of less than 5000 in NJ every memorial day there would be a parade with vets from WWI thru Vietnam from the local high school to the cemetery where they would hold a ceremony to remember those who served, at the the end they would blow taps, I will always remember the sound of that bugle, with deep appreciation for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. RE: Lest we forget - Scud - 05-29-2012 Thanks to all the Vets and to those still in harm's way, stay safe!! Dave |
