Memorial Day commemorates U.S. soldiers who died while in the military service. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War - it was extended after World War I to honor Americans who have died in all wars.
I want to thank my family and friends that have served in our military - past, present, or future. My Grandpa Anderson, Uncle Kent, Mandy & Mike McTiernan, Nick Vigus, Jon Whall, Johnny Kafer, Jay Alba, Jared, Tausha and Caden Lowry, Matt Stratton and Derrek Child.
I also want to give a shout out to all those that love this great nation as much as I do. American people that haven't served in the military but love this country with all their hearts.
I'm Proud to be an American!
I agree with you girl I am proud to be an American!!! I still get chills everytime we go to the Ute Stampde and they play this song while the guy parachuts down! Love and miss you!
