The reason for the weekend

The reason for the weekend

Something well worth remembering as we kick off the unofficial start of summer.

That’s not the purpose of this weekend.

Neither is a sale at the mall, a trip to the shore, or a three-day weekend.

Seven U.S. soldiers were killed yesterday when a bomb exploded in a field that were patrolling by foot.

That is the reason for this weekend. It is Memorial Day, honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

Never forget.
