Dusty Chalk Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Yeah, I never know what the appropriate salutation is on a day like today, "Happy Memorial Day" seems inappropriate, but I did want to acknowledge those who have died while in the service. So a toast to those gone -- thank you for your service. Quote
n_maher Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Cheers, although today I'm limited to water it's the thought that counts. Quote
jvlgato Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Yes, thank you to those who served for our freedom! Quote
Voltron Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Hear him! Cheers with a FFF Permanent Funeral (sorry if morbid sounding). Quote
blessingx Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) To the fallen. Tradition lately seems to have become reminding people (even with good intentions) the difference between Veteran's Day and Memorial Day. Edited May 27, 2013 by blessingx Quote
raffy Posted May 27, 2013 Report Posted May 27, 2013 Raising a glass to our fallen heroes. Thanks for all that you do and for keeping us safe.....and that includes our active service people too. Quote

Absorbine_Sr Posted May 28, 2013 Report Posted May 28, 2013 Raising a glass to those who served and serve. Though they did not participate in an active conflict, I raise a glass in memory of my brothers Paul (Navy) and Chuck (Army). I miss them. 1 Quote

Dusty Chalk Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Posted May 25, 2015 Bumping...here's what I posted on Facebook, paraphrasing: I know you don't like war. None of us do. I know you want what's best for our soldiers, to come home, all of us do. I know you may disagree with the politics of some of our politicians. All of us do at one point or another. And to protect our rights, from hostile enemies who don't share our values and wish to change us, we have our soldiers. And some of those soldiers do not come home. This day, remember them. I give thanks to those who have paid the ultimate price in these violent times. I hope they all are resting in peace now. 1 Quote
