Take a Time Out..

From your painting, sawing, and BBQ-ing...


And remember the purpose of Memorial Day...


I do not know the identity of these men, or if they made it home or not. I think the men background of the first picture knew my grandfather because of the way they are looking into the camera. The second picture I think are of some of my grandmother's brother's friends. Her brothers were sailors.

Thank you for sharing your photos. They are a wonderful tribute to all service men and women.

Thankfully my dad survived being an MIA POW in the war he served in so I can honor him on Veterans Day.

On Memorial Day, and many other days throughout the year, I think of and appreciate all of the men he served with and all of the thousands of others through every other war who didn't get to come home and pick up where they left off when they sacrificed their lives to defend our nation.
