With all these sales and Memorial Day specials, I have to wonder how many young people even understand or care what this day is suppose to be all about. How many of these people have people currently serving? The numbers are getting smaller, and so are people's memories.
As an example of that, we have 3 grandsons who are currently serving (one flies Apache Helos and just returned from Afghanistan), and we are very proud of them. Yet one of our sons who joined the Marine Reserves out of high school (and made all of his rank "counting bullets" stateside) considers himself a "Real Marine", and he doesn't even think about others who were not in the Marines, as though others who served and died were not real soldiers. I doubt that he could handle the stress we and our fellow soldiers have been under, or are under now. This is a new generation, I guess.
