I agree completely, well except for that last word. But it leaves me uncomfortable when people want to celebrate all vets on Memorial Day. We have our day. This day is for our friends and those who went before them and since them that didn't share the same luck as us and gave everything.

Three deployments and I came back every time while men that were far better than me didn't make it. Here's to remembering them and their families for the sacrifices they made for us.
