In Memory

[piplover]

Tomorrow's Memorial Day, a holiday that means a lot to me.  I just wanted to say that I will never forget those I served with, and am thankful for all my experiences, good and bad.

Here's to my Staff Sgt, who died from complications shortly after deploying.  I only knew him a few months, but he was a good man with two little boys.  

Here's to my cousin, who lost his fingers, his ears, and more skin than we care to think about in a bomb that killed the 3 men with him.  I'm so thankful every day that he survived and can kiss his little girls good night. 

And here's to all of those men and women still serving.

Here's to you. You did your part, and you did it well and with pride, for as long as you could.
