Twice a year we honor our military. One is called Veterans Day. It is celebrated out of appreciation for all who wore the uniform with honor. The other is Memorial Day. You don’t wish a vet a happy Memorial Day, May 25th. It isn’t a happy day. This is a time to reflect on those military men and women who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
They died fighting against tyranny to protect and preserve the ideals that founded our democracy. They didn’t die for free drug needles, tiny houses, universal healthcare or cradle to grave safety nets. They died to defend freedom and they trusted that future generations would it preserve it.
Our democratic republic form of government, with it’s inalienable rights, has allowed us to prosper to our fullest abilities. At the same time, we’ve had to endure tremendous challenges, from civil war to foreign wars in order to keep it. But, none of those things was a greater threat than that that comes from within… in the form of socialism and the corrupt influences of big government.
This Memorial Day… remember the precious legacy given to you by our fallen heroes. And accept it with the care and responsibility it deserves. Show your responsibility when you exercise your right to vote. Do it with due diligence and with respect to the ideals of our Constitution.
Freedom was never free, it came at a very high price. Don’t you ever forget it.

Part of the problem with Covid’s was the way it was reported by our over-eager news media.
On this day in 1937, Amelia Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, set off on a record breaking flight around the world. Her aircraft was a state of the art twin engine Lockheed Electra.
In 1991, when members of the aircraft recovery group were scouring Nikumaroro, they located what appeared to be pieces of two different shoes under a Ren tree. They were unable to make any specific identification as to whom the shoes belonged to, but they may have identified the tree that Gallagher had written about.” Source: National Geographic
