"Don't cry for me when I'm gone...I've lived longer than a lot of other guys I met." - William B. Lotosky
For whatever dumb reason I never equated that oft repeated phrase by my grandfather with Memorial Day. And I'm sure just about every veteran of a war has said it.
Remember the fallen but, also hope for a world where no more young men and women have to die before their time.
