A Happy Memorial Day to one and all
Today most of us will go about our days, or lives, as we do just about every day. Many will engage in a variety of holiday activities, taking advantage of the day off of work, and enjoying the day with friends & family. And we should, for that is just what those who gave the ultimate sacrifice fought & died for; that we may live free and enjoy each day as we choose.
Part of the Memorial Day holiday in the USA includes a call for "The National Moment of Remembrance" which encourages all Americans to pause wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a minute of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the nation.
I welcome all from all nations to join me in observing The National Moment of Remembrance with me.
Enjoy the day!

Thank you for the reminder, Patrick.
ReplyDeleteWe should honor also those who are often forgotten on such holidays, those in Coast Guard and National Guard whom we also owe so much for keeping this country safe.
Have a great day, Patrick!
