Memorial Day: What today is about

I just want to be clear here
Memorial day is about honoring those who gave all. So please today of all days, don't thank me for my service. Instead, thank those who didn't make it back, and their families and loved ones.

Take a moment to look at those who gave you the freedom we all sometimes take for granted and thank them in your own way.

One such man:
Paul R Syverson III

We served together for a short time, however, I will never forget.
