The Military Touches Many of Our Lives

Yesterday was Memorial Day and I find it interesting how quickly most of us get back to our "normal" lives once the long holiday weekend is over. After the parades end and the marching bands put their instruments away, Memorial Day gets tucked away like every other holiday until next year.

But it's not like any other holiday, and we can't forget that.

For those military folk that are in harm's way - and their families - it's more than a holiday. It's their very life and sometimes their death.
