jerry1939 Posted May 23, 2015 Report Posted May 23, 2015 Monday, May 25th, is Memorial Day in the USA. It's a National Holiday in which we Honor our Fallen Soldiers. For you nice people in other countries, please do the same. FYI: My Dad fought in WW1, and was wounded. Three sons in our family. At various times, each of us 3 Served our Country. Oldest brother was wounded in Korea. Next older brother and I served during peace time. The only fighting we saw was in a bar on a Friday night. jerry amazingkevin, Scrolling Steve, LarryEA and 1 other 4 Quote

Dan Posted May 23, 2015 Report Posted May 23, 2015 Memorial Day is big in my family. Myself, wife, and son served. So did my brothers, sister, dad, and uncles. My Uncle Herman told his parents he was going to join the Navy and end WWII. A week after he enlisted the war ended, so I guess he was right, well, in a way. Scrolling Steve and LarryEA 2 Quote
