Please, out of honor and respect: "Memorial Day is exclusively dedicated to mourning and honoring the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military, rather than living veterans."

Don't cheer on or let it go - don't let it go unanswered when leaders who should know better send out messages linking themselves to some faux hyper-patriotism about the military, about Veterans, about war.

Memorial day is about those who gave all. Period.

Bullshyte Fuckhead !
You totally denigrate those who were wounded, lost limbs, full body capacity, etc.
They gave just like the others who didn't come home.

Some did come home by luck of the draw, fate.

My oldest son served with 1st Cav in Sadr City, Baghdad, April 2004 to April 2005. He lost a best buddy one day when they were on patrol and an IED went off near their Humvee. Killed his buddy.

The irony is, that buddy asked to trade usual places in the Humvee before they rolled out. Fluke of fate it wasn't my son in his usual position that day, surviving while another literally died in his place.

Fuggin' Lefturds like you, especially ones who never served, have no place lecturing the rest of us on the upcoming Memorial Day.

NOW A NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MINISERIES EVENT ABC News' Chief Global Affairs Correspondent Martha Raddatz shares remarkable tales of heroism, hope, and heartbreak in her account of Black Sunday--a battle during one of the deadliest periods of the Iraq war. The First Cavalry Division came under surprise attack in Sadr City on Sunday, April 4, 2004. More than seven thousand miles away, their families awaited the news for forty-eight hellish hours--expecting the worst. In this powerful, unflinching account, Martha Raddatz takes readers from the streets of Baghdad to the home front and tells the story of that horrific day through the eyes of the courageous American men and women who lived it. A masterpiece of literary nonfiction that rivals any war-related classic that has preceded it.--The Washington Post

My Son's battalion is the focus of this book. Their intro to combat, baptism of fire. They hadn't even unpacked upon arriving to replace another unit departing their TOD.
