Monday, May 31st we will commemorate Memorial Day. We will remember and honor those who fell in service to the idea of a more perfect nation. We will think on those young men and women who were not afforded the opportunity to grow old. We will watch the faces of those young old men and women do who remember them. We will look at the small American flags in front of the grave markers. We will eat a burger and a hot dog and we will raise a glass to the warriors who fought and died.
