Spot on Ed.

Let's always remember the men and women in uniform who keep us free... and for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Salute

I grew up in a small town of less than 5000 in NJ every memorial day there would be a parade with vets from WWI thru Vietnam from the local high school to the cemetery where they would hold a ceremony to remember those who served, at the the end they would blow taps, I will always remember the sound of that bugle, with deep appreciation for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Thanks to all the Vets and to those still in harm's way, stay safe!!
