Agreed Al, unfortunately we are rapidly losing that entire generation of patriots.

Thank you to all who served then, now and in the future.

as I sit here watching the "Battle of Britain" movie on our DVR, I can't help but note the lack of patriotic/historic/traditional war movies .... we most certainly do need to remember the price paid by the generations who came before us

I remind my kids about Pearl Harbor every year. I remind them of the sacrifice that people made. I want them to remember My father and their grandfather fought in the South Pacific. I want them to know the sacrifices that everybody made in WWII.

I asked my young son this morning what day it was. He replied that it was Monday Dec. 7th and the aniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. I am proud that he knew and still remembers that part of history.

When my wife woke me up for breakfast today, the first thing I said, was today is December 7th, Pearl Harbor day. She said nothing was mentioned about it on the news or morning shows. We should never forget.

I heard nothing on the morning news and was disturbed that the younger people at work did not seem to understand how important it is to remember the attack and the sacrifices that were made by that generation. I remember the stories told by my parents, aunt and uncle and my grandparents. I understand how their experiences shaped our lives and my values. I won't forget.
