Memorial Day
May 25, 2008
As we in the United States honor our fallen war heroes, I wanted to post this clip, which was part of the "Shock & Awe: 5 Years Later" special and is one of the most moving descriptions I have ever heard of what it means to be a soldier.
To all those who have worn this country's uniform, and to the families of all those who have died while doing so, I send heartfelt gratitude and an acknowledgement of an unpayable debt.
