In Gratitude on Memorial Day

Take time today to remember those that paid the ultimate sacrifice and to thank those in military that continue to protect our freedom.



Here are a few ideas on how you can observe the day today....

...by visiting cemeteries and placing flags or flowers on the graves of our fallen heroes.

...by visiting memorials.

...by flying the U.S. Flag at half-staff until noon.

...by flying the 'POW/MIA Flag' as well (Section 1082 of the 1998 Defense Authorization Act).

...by participating in a "National Moment of Remembrance": at 3 p.m. to pause and think upon the true meaning of the day, and for Taps to be played.

...by renewing a pledge to aid the widows, widowers, and orphans of our falled dead, and to aid the disabled veterans.
