To all military veterans and those currently serving, THANK YOU!
As much as they should be thanked, that's Veterans Day. Memorial Day is for those who died while serving, such as my brother.
CNN has a nice website that goes through all of the men and women killed in Iraq or Afghanistan. They did a short segment on it yesterday, and to our surprise, they randomly picked on my brother to use as an example. He's the first one they talk about.
