Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States. On this day, which occurs every year on the last Monday of May, we remember the men and women who have died while serving our country.
Many people on this day will visit cemeteries and memorials placing an American flag at graves to honor our fallen heros. Let’s remember that appreciation is not only one day out of the year – it’s year round.
Thank you to all of those who have died while serving our great country! I think this picture says it all.

Excellent tribute my friend. Canada honours our vets on Remembrance Day Nov. 11. At exactly 11am, everything ceases for 1 full minute. Whatever the job…work stops and no one says a word for that 1 minute. It is thought to be disrespectful to say or do anything. In that 1 minute, you think of the veterans and what they have given so we can be free. Mom remembers this from school. She also wonders in today’s fast paced world, just how many of us still do this.

That sounds like a wonderful way to remember why we have our freedom. Awesome ya’ll! I gotta remember to do that in November as well. XOXO – Bacon
