On this Memorial Day 2009 I’m grateful and thankful for the Patriots who’ve given the ultimate sacrifice to preserve our freedom over the years. Honored Memorial Day to their memories and a salute to those who serve today.
From Crispus Attucks and the Revolutionary founding fathers, to the Buffalo Soldiers and Rough Riders. From the Civil War to the Great War (WW I) Doughboys to the Korean War Veterans. From the greatest generation of WWII including the Tuskegee Airmen and Montford Point Marines to veterans of Vietnam. And to the warriors of the Gulf Wars and anti-terrorist war.
This list isn’t total but there is no less respect for all of those who served in other conflicts and in clandestine missions around the globe. God Bless your memories and Godspeed to a safer future.


Well said, Martin.
