Memorial Day 2014

A wonderful, powerful speech by Ronald Reagan fitting for this Memorial Day, 2014.

Remember those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Sadly, that freedom is being chipped away at by clueless liberals, and a weak, inept leadership.

God Bless our military.

Memorial Day 2013- Video of Hungarian Shadow Dance Group "Attraction"

I wanted to share this video with you in honor of those who have fought and died to maintain our freedom, and to secure freedom for countries that do not even appreciate their sacrifice.

This Hungarian shadow dance group "Attraction" is currently competing on Britain's Got Talent this year. Yes, I know, but the group performed what I see as a very touching tribute to our greatest heroes. It was their initial audition piece.

Very few dry eyes in the audience, and they received unanimous votes to move on to the next level. They are current faves.



Take a moment while you're out there celebrating a day off with your hot dogs and beer to think about the true meaning of Memorial day and honor our fallen soldiers, and those of our allies.

Honoring Our Fallen Soldiers- Video

A tribute video to our fallen heroes.

Song: "If Heaven Was Needing A Hero" by Jo Dee Messina.


Remember- Memorial Day 2012



We often forget what the true meaning of Memorial Day is. It's about honoring those brave warriors who fought for our freedoms and never made it home. It's also about honoring the families of those fallen heroes.

Iraq Veteran Alex Horton's blog post says it all:

I hope civilians find more solace in Memorial Day than I do. Many seem to forget why it exists in the first place, and spend the time looking for good sales or drinking beers on the back porch. It’s a long weekend, not a period of personal reflection. At the same time, many incorrectly thank Vets or active duty folks for their service. While appreciated, it’s misdirected. That’s what Veterans Day is for. Instead, they should take some time and remember the spirit of the country and the dedication of those men and women who chose to pick up arms. They never came home to be thanked, and only their memory remains.
