Many people often say “Happy Memorial Day,” though I do follow that practice. While we should be thankful for the sacrifice made by our brave men and women over the past 200+ years, I don’t want to cheapen it by using the word “happy.” Instead, let us use the word “honorable.”
The following are a collection of photographs I have taken at Arlington National Cemetery last weekend. These individuals symbolize the ultimate price paid by our fighting forces over the past 100 years to secure for us the liberties we enjoy today. So please, take a moment, and read the headstones below and reflect on that period of time and honor those who picked up arms in defense of our nation. The images below represent the individuals that have gone before us. In part 2, I will post the mass grave markers honoring flight crews that died together.
