Update!

I believe the country is evolving, times are evolving, and people are evolving with new ways to educate and grow in moral. I recently spoke with a real veteran about this cause and as he was supportive, he was also hesitant. He believed Memorial Day has also changed in a way of adding multiple parties to the cause like the police, fire fighters, and also innocent lives lost. He believes that the memorial has a right to evolve but is concerned it’s losing its true purpose, to remember veterans. After discussing the cause further with this veteran we came to a clear and reasonable understanding. The Month of May Memorial should be broken into 4 parts. 

Week 1: Back the Blue. Remember those who respond even when their presence is under valued.

Week 2: Rescuers of Red. Remember the lives who have been lost against conditions that others would flee.

Week 3: Remember the Innocent who lost their lives by those who are against what it means to be an American.

Week 4: Remember Veterans and those actively serving.

Will you fly your flag at half mast for the whole month of May?
