Their sacrifice is even larger if they didn't go to a better place.

Thanks for posting this. This is a very sad day for me as I remember all those magnificent young soldiers who did not come home. They did not get to love and raise families and look at grand kids like i did. May God bless them and their families.

As I say every year, I'm thankful that my brother (and my wife's brother) both came home safely, so that we don't have a personal reason to celebrate Memorial Day, and can celebrate Veteran's Day instead. 

Thanks to all of those who served and did not come home, though, and I'll raise a glass in their honor tonight.

I copied this off FB today from several Marines I know on there, FYI.  One said 6:27 PM.

Tonight Memorial Day 5/31/21 on Fox News Brett Baer Special Report at 1800 hrs!
They will be airing a story of the Lima Company 3/25 Fallen Warriors and the Nashville Warriors Retreat!
Make sure you spread the word FAR and Wide!
For the Gold Star Families and all of us Lima Warriors.. We remember everyday the selfless sacrifice of our Fallen Warriors.
Tonight we are hoping to spread the word! Allow the rest of the world to know and honor those men of Lima Company 3/25!
Semper FI!
