Oh Beautiful
For Heroes Proved
In Liberating Strife
Who more than self
their country loved
And mercy more than life
America America
May God thy gold refine
'till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine.

Happy Memorial Day!
Our Daddy said one of the most moving moments he ever had was flying home during the Vietnam War on a transport plane carrying the dead from the war. He said that the Marines stood the entire flight guarding those fallen.
We remember.
