Done. The sacrifice our honored fallen made for me as an American will never ever  be lost on me or my family . I will always keep it in my heart and remember the reason  I am able to live free.

I honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. But also in my thoughts are the ones left behind.

 

In my time in the service I am grateful to have never lost a battle buddy. But at the Veterans clinic, I know many who have lost buddy's and they take Memorial Day really hard. It isn't BBQs and picnics for them. Their lives are full of Survivor's Guilt and second guessing. My thoughts are always with them on Memorial Day.

 

I also remember the families and loved ones left behind. They had a loved one ripped away from them, usually in a violent manner. Their heart may heal but it will always bear scars. :(

Very well said boater, good on 'ya. I fear too many of us live with Survivor's Guilt. It's punishing.
