Thanks to the Founding Fathers!
Sometimes the eagle
had bad times,
but the principle US
is very good …

there were some big failures in the history of the US;
I don’t think, that the Vietnam war was necessary.
(Neither the extinction of the native Indians in the US).
But sometimes I am glad, that the US army existed:

frizz-comment: maybe an eagle would be better than this small representation of the Air Force – but we honor also the small gestures!

    Hi frizztext

    Thanks for the post – the last image is truly amazing, God Bless! I actually only recently learned about Memorial Day, rather disappointed in myself (true, I live in Switzerland, but still!)

    Memorial Day is coming up again, and I wish you and your family a Happy Holiday! We should never forget our armed forces, since Freedom is never Free!

    Thanks,
    John
