To many this is a day to BBQ, Drink Beer, Play on the lake and have an extra day off work. We as veterans get Thanked for our service to this Great Nation. But it is all wrong. Please watch this video as I break down what Monday is and really this weekend. To all of our warriors and patriots that have died to keep this country free, THANK YOU and Thank you to your families as both of you have make the ultimate Sacrifice.

Our freedom was not free. Thanks for the post Chris. My Dad’s first cousin landed on the beaches of Normady...never made it to the shore.

Thank you Hogon and Buckchaser. Wish I could thank your relative. Unfortunately it took people like that to die to give others a chance to get in and crush the opposition. Thank you two for the comments.

Those men and women will never go fishing again, they will never co to Church again, they will never sit in the back yard and drink beer and eat hamburgers with their friends and family again.

To these people, we owe everything that we have and have just recently we have been reminded that it can all be taken away in a heartbeat.

Thank You to all those Souls of the many generations that have given us the freedom that we have.

Stay Safe and may God Bless Them All and God Bless America!!

ttt....just watched the President and VP Pence at the wreath laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. Please prayerfully remember our Gold Star families on this special day.

Agreed brother. Its for all our brothers and sisters that we lost down range, and all the others before and after them that made the ultimate sacrifice for us. Im always sure to respectfully remind people of this when they say “Thank you for your service” during this holiday. Love the video and tight lines man

Keep looking forward. That’s why windshields are larger than rear view mirrors.
