If you only read one thing on Memorial Day, it should be this thread by Rep. Dan Crenshaw

I don't read the Blaze but while on the way to Gatlinburg last Wednesday I was listening to Michael DelGiorno on WTN who went on a long diatribe about what Memorial Day was really about and that most have no idea what it's about. Since I was taking the entire family on vacation I had a captive audience so I decided to remind my children and teach my grandchildren EXACTLY what Memorial Day was for and what others gave up so that my family could have. I made all of my grandchildren think about what their first job would be; what their career would be like; what would their husband or wife be like; what would their children be like; and finally what would their grandchildren be like?

Then I told them about the people who would experience none of those things because they gave their lives to protect my family's dreams and experiences. I told them to think about that on Memorial Day. It was a pretty somber experience but I think it got through to them. It certainly had my children's support.
