Today is Memorial Day. Hollis and I went to a celebration/fundraiser for two Marines from my unit that lost their lives in Afghanistan by hitting roadside bombs/Improvised Explosive Devices (IED's). Though, we did not know the Marines killed- they were new to the unit when they left- I still remember them and all those who serve in the United States armed forces for taking the risks that each one of us take in order to advance the cause of freedom and the protection of our own freedom at home.
It was good to talk a little bit more with those in the unit that we know and get a feel for the experiences that they had while serving in Afghanistan.
