  • Op Ed # 668 Memorial Day, May 27, 2024: Honoring US Military Personnel And Veterans

By Capt Joseph R. John, May 27, 2024

On Memorial Day and every day, we remember and are thankful for the members of the US Armed Forces who lost their lives defending the Republic at home and on foreign fields in combat.  The Good Lord Blessed and rested their noble souls. 

Patriotic Americans support the honorable memory of those fallen military heroes and support the lives of members of the US Armed Forces who serve in the defense of the Republic overseas and at home today. Throughout his life, President Ronald W. Reagan, honored fallen military heroes as well as all members of the US Armed Forces; he often spoke with respect for them, for protecting and defending the US Constitution.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpH5L8zCtSk

This Memorial Day, and every day, we also remember and honor the millions of retired US Military Veterans who, at one point in their lives, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America” for an amount “up to and including their lives.”
