It’s Memorial Day here in the US. Anyone know what that really means? Other than bbq? I don’t. As a kid, one of the things we did to “celebrate” this day was to go visit my mom’s grave. I think the holiday has a deeper meaning and I spent some time looking it up.
Enough time to realize I couldn’t do justice to the topic, and have time to bbq at least, so thought I’d just list some of my favourite veteran politicians and candidates instead. My Memorial Day list.
