Memorial Day 2010

Whether we agree with our country’s wars or not, we can still all show our appreciation for the sacrifices of men and women who have given up so much—even their lives—so that the rest of us can be free.

We Americans are able to speak openly, associate freely, and express our individual opinions because of their service. Billions of people throughout history have not been so fortunate.

Thank you!
