A day to pause and remember those who died in service of our country. Begun after the War Between the States, honoring those on both sides who died in that horrible conflict.

There is a young man here in Iowa who, for over a decade, has been painting a large rock in honor of those who died and those who served. Here is a link to some of the images. http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/im...ns+rock+in+iowa
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

To those who as Lincoln said, "gave the last full measure of their devotion".
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
