    My fervent prayer is..

    that you all have watched the Memorial Day Concert on PBS. If not, it'll
    most likely be on YouTube somewhere. As a nation, we are gifted to have
    so many warriors to leap forward and defend us, never to ask for any thing
    but come home to nothing. On this Memorial Weekend, find a vet, you can
    figure it out...they are the proud, the ones standing straight and looking at
    the flag with pride...a tear or two rolling...and say thank you! I'm glad you
    are on my side.

    A very nice wish, but Memorial Day is the day set to honor those who have fallen while serving.

    Veterans have their own day in November.

    Don't wait till a holiday tho to thank a Vet. Any day will do.

    As a vet, I concur. This is a day reserved for those that died. A solemn day of remembrance. Whenever someone says "thank you" to me on Memorial day, I always say "but, I didn't die". Then I chuckle to myself because I am so much smarter than everyone else .

    Welp, y'all missed my point...all I wanted to say was to NOT wait until
    November to say thanks, by Gawd, our guys are hurtin' all year and a
    bunch of 'em aren't getting the respect they deserve. I see 'em around
    and don't wait until November to recognize their sacrifice. Holy Bells, if
    they're dead ya cain't say thanks, now, canya?
