Growing up military and serving in war, Memorial Day has always been a major part of my life that I dread each and every year. Oh, sure, I'll take the day off holiday anytime but, sure can do without the mattress sales and hollow so-called "celebrations".

Specifically, for John who was my high school physics lab partner and for so many guys I knew closely and those I barely knew and those I never knew; for those who came before, during and after . . . God Bless You one and all.

I understand completely TG, they bastardize the true meaning of the holiday with store sales, etc. Lots of people don't think of it as a day of respect and remembrance, but a day for the big barbeque and pool party. Bless John, and all the many others.
