We may not live
close to Arlington National,
but I think the local
scout troop
does a good job
of making sure we
remember.
Every Memorial Day they carefully plot outall the veterans' graves
and place an American flag next to
each one.
You almost have to be there
to get the full impact
of just how many men and women
have given up part or all of
their lives
to help keep our country
free.
It makes me so
grateful and
proud
to be living
in this great land.
The flagpole that stands on the hillin the cemetery
has a plaque below
which says it all:
How blessed we are
that so many have been
willing to serve our country!
May God continue watching over
those who still serve today.
