Memorial Day

 ”It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.
 Rather we should thank God that such men lived.”
 ~General George Patton~

~Colin Powel~

“We have gone forth from our shores repeatedly over the last hundred years ….
and put wonderful young men and women at risk,
many of whom have lost their lives,
and we have asked for nothing except enough ground to bury them in.”

The American cemetery at Brittany France
many thousands of war dead lay here
