Memorial Day
Do you know your history?
Do you know your history?
You may have visited a cemetery before and may have seen a headstone with coins on it. Do you know why? I thought I would share with you the meaning of placing a coin on the grave marker of a soldier that has made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
On Memorial Day, we commemorate all the U.S. soldiers who’ve died while serving our country. With so many of our servicemen and women currently on dangerous overseas assignments, it’s also a time to think about their sacrifice, and the sacrifice of their families back home.
Today is Memorial Day. Please take some time today and remember the men and women who died fighting for our country.
Since we can’t spend the entire Memorial Day weekend barbecuing, many Americans observe the day by hopping over to the local cinema to take in a blockbuster movie and some free air conditioning.
