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.
