Memorial Day

This Monday is Memorial Day.

It is the day we are supposed to honor those who gave all in the service of our country.

Fly your flag (half mast till noon, then full staff)
Thank a Vet
Remember those who gave their all.

Taps is played at 2 times during the day in the military. At night, signaling the end of the day, and during the day - signaling the end of someone's days here on earth.

Taps:

Day is done, gone the sun,
From the hills, from the lake,
From the sky.
All is well, safely rest,
God is nigh.
