Happy Memorial Day…

A Tribute to the men and women that have served and sacrificed for each and every one of us…

I found this video on Youtube and spent a few moments in silence thinking about the men and women I’ve personally known – and the many millions that I have not known – that have fought on foreign lands for our freedoms. I also thought of the next generation getting ready to head overseas and my thoughts and prayers are with them…

Thank you for serving our country and preserving our freedoms… the very rights we have that allow us to build our businesses and live the American Dream.

This is a poem that a dear friend sent to me via email along with the pictures he sent.

Enjoy… and be sure to add your comments below and let us know your favorite poems, links and tributes to the men and women that have sacrificed for our freedoms and to protect America…

It is the
VETERAN,

who has given us freedom of religion.

salutes the Flag,

It is the
VETERAN
who serves
under the Flag,
