I would Like to go and put flags on the graves at the Arlington, National Cemetery just out side of Dallas. Have tried for the last few years and something always comes up. Year Before last the Wife and I went out to the local cemetery and bought flags ourselves and put them out on all the Vets Graves. Cost us over 200 dollars.

At the Houston Veterans Cemetery, volunteers put flags on every grave. I'm going to find out what I have to do to volunteer. Thanks for the reminder SGT Bryon Sergent

I believe Memorial day is on 25 May this year, give me some help if I am off on the date. We will be heavily involved in a training exercise in Hohenfels.....what better way to honor those brave souls that sacrificed for us than by some realistic training to prepare us for our next fight.
By the way, yesterday was Holocaust Memorial Day

April 15, 2015: Holocaust Memorial Day
Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. The day, called Yom Ha’Shoah Ve Hagevurah in Hebrew, is celebrated on the 27th day of the month of Nisan, a week after the end

CSM Michael J. Uhlig I watched our local PBS station night before last about the Holocaust. It was film taken by the Germans as they watched those people starve to death or were shot. Huge trenches were bulldozed and the Germans made the men take the female bodies and tossed into the trenches. Some of the camps used starvation, gas, and furnaces to kill them. For some reason they never covered up the bodies in the trenches. When the camps were liberated an attempt was made to count the bodies in the trenches. At each trench, filled in by the liberators, signs were placed with the approximate number of bodies. Most of them had 5000 bodies. I wish I wouldn't have watched it. I still can't quit thinking about it.
