Here we are, observing another Memorial Day weekend and once again, we should be taking a moment to remember those who died in the service of their country. I wrote about this day three years ago, in a piece where I wondered aloud about how we observe this day in our country.
From my musings about this weekend here: America Is at a Crossroads on This Memorial Day
Hopefully, most of the country today will take a moment to reflect upon these heroes who put on the nation’s uniform and died wearing it and will honor their memory. While most do that and post quotes from politicians that they barely know anything about other than those nifty quotes, I decided to go in a different direction today.
What is the state of the country that these men and women died to preserve?
The short answer is… in trouble.
America will turn 245 years old this July 4th, 2021, and she has seen her fair share…
