Memorial Day is observed in remembrance of the Americans who have died fighting for their country. Serving in the armed forces is not an easy task even when the nation is at peace, and in wartime, an incredibly tough burden is placed on the backs of our young men and women. Many are injured. Some die. All deserve our thanks for doing what their nation asked of them, whether or not we agree that what they were asked to do was the right thing.
