A time to pause for a moment to remember those friends, relatives or someone you may have known that served and gave the ultimate. I know a few guys I served with in Vietnam whose names are on the wall in DC, truly good guys all, who lost their lives there. God bless you guys!

Thank you Ted for the posting. The memorial walls in DC are very moving & touching, but the real tear jerker is walking through Arlington and reading some of the posters and letters that the children of those killed in Iraq have left for their fathers/mothers/brothers/sisters.

Thank you to all those who have served and currently serve our nation.

And let us not forget the ballplayers:

Alex Burr
Eddie Grant
Elmer Gedeon
Harry O'Neill
Bob Neighbors

I'm sure I am missing at least one, but it's the thought that counts.

I visited the US military cemetery in Holland about 20 years ago and it almost brought me to tears.

All I can say is Thank You.
