In Memoriam: with Purpose for All
Memorial Day is dedicated to those who have died in the service of our country. Americans give serious thought to why our honored dead sacrificed their lives.
(There is no room here for the ignorance or distortions that presently are hoisted upon this day. Memorial Day is not the Fourth of July, Veterans Day, Support Our Troops Day, War Movie Day, or the travesty of a Happy Memorial Day Sale of up to 50% off chosen items.)
WHY did they sacrifice their lives?
The easy answer is, “For their country.” What does that mean? Let’s unspin the blurb and hoopla.
There are definitely some things the honored dead did not sacrifice their lives for.
The honored dead did NOT sacrifice their lives for:
