Default Memorial Day is not Veterans Day

As a veteran I just want to remind everyone that Memorial Day is a time to remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice of their lives in the service of their country. Let’s focus on those veterans, not the veterans who did not make that ultimate sacrifice. Every other day we can thank those who served. I have been at events on Memorial Day when all Veterans are acknowledged, that just makes me cringe a little bit. Thanks for all of those Veterans who made that ultimate sacrifice. And bless those families that lost a family member.
