This is the grave of my younger brother. We went out last Memorial Day
and visited the National Cemetary. He did not die in war, but was a
veteran with the priviledge of being buried in a National Cemetary.
A very sobering place to be

Amen and amen! We have so much to be thankful for because of those who served!
a fitting tribute indeed ...
and tho' the years have passed, i am so sorry for your loss ...
Thank you to your tribute to our military men and especially to those who have lost their lives. I'm so sorry that you have lost a brother to this war but I am thankful for young men like him who are so willing to sacrifice their lives that we can have the freedom that we do in this country!
Oh, Deby, that is sad about your brother. And you have so many in your family who have served our country. I am very thankful for them all.
A big debit of gratitude and respect is owed to you and your very special family....Blessings...Mary

Thanks to your family members and to each and everyone that helps our country to stay free!
Have a wonderful day!♥
Dear Deby, we owe all those you listed so very much. I, too, have a long list who have served in the Military. On this day, I love to remember ALL that each of them have done for our Country and for me individually.
I just heard our President say a short time ago, "This country is man's last best best hope." I do believe that and without those who have and will and are serving in our Military our great freedoms would not be possible. My Thanks go out to all and their families. connie from Texas

I also love that you posted names of those who should be honored!
Praise the LORD for our military willing to go...for us.
My heart can certainly appreciate this day as there are many military veterans in my family and my yougest serving at this present time in Iraq.
Thank you deby for this special post of HONOR.
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!
Love the post...especially the part that says "Josh". Of course!! That cemetery is amazing...I have been there before....humbling experience...that is for sure.
It is a debt we owe that can never be repaid. It reminds me of the verse in John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
