This weekend take a moment to thank the good Lord above for the real heros who served and gave it all for our freedom.
And also pray God swiftly destroys all of the assholes currently trying to tear down our country from within.
Amen.

Indeed. The professional Left hates this holiday almost as much as they hate Christmas. That’s no reason why true grateful Americans shouldn’t commemorate the best among us, those who paid the ultimate price for this Constitutional miracle and their brothers.

They’d love to have their assholes destroyed.

I always think about both my grandpas. One served in WWII with 3 of his brothers. All survived and met in France after the fighting stopped. I still have a picture of them together in France. Happy Memorial Day to all the heroes

If you have never been to Arlington, do yourself a favor and make it a point to do so. All that toxic masculinity buried 6 feet under died for your freedom.

Major Art Bonifas, Omaha Nebraska, West Point 66, national championship swimmer, math instructor at the Academy, husband, father of three, murdered by North Koreans at the DMZ in August of 1976, at the age of 33.
Lieutenant Mark Barrett, South Carolina killed the same day.
quote:
Nearly a thousand mourners turned up for the services, at which Father Curley eulogized Major Bonifas as a man who “lived so completely and loved his fellow man so fully that our sorrow turns to joy knowing that having fought the fight and run the race, a victor's crown is his.”
Lieutenant Mark Barrett, South Carolina killed the same day.

COLUMBIA, S. C., Aug. 24 (UPI)—First Lieut. Mark T. Barrett, the other United States officer slain by North Koreans last week, was buried under a sweltering August sun today in the presence of his family, fellow soldiers and government officials.

Clarence Hughes - Mitry Mory, France
The story of my great-uncle, who was at the age of 28 as part of the liberation of France.
Translated from a French correspondence:
The story of my great-uncle, who was at the age of 28 as part of the liberation of France.
Translated from a French correspondence:
quote:
At the end of the morning, Sergeant Clarence P. HUGUES, accompanied by two MITRYENS who guide him, leaves his tank and continues on foot to the limit of the SNCF city to locate and estimate the importance of the German forces ambushed behind the mounds which border the northeast side of the avenue de la gare opposite the rue du Val de Mory. He was killed instantly by the bursting of a shell. Is it a German or American shell? Some witnesses say that Sergeant HUGUES, finding the shot of the American guns or mortars too long to reach the Germans, would have asked for it to be shortened. He would have been, a little too much... His body lies, mutilated, in the middle of the avenue de la gare about ten meters from the beginning of the lime trees. Despite the risks, the Germans are less than 50 m from the On the other side of the street, a MITRYAN goes to cover him with a blanket, another throws a flower, then another. According to a witness, in the evening, when the American services relieved him, he was covered with flowers.
