On Memorial Day we remember the over one million servicemen who died while serving our country. We place flags and flowers on their graves to remind ourselves of the sacrifice they made. We travel great distances to see family both living and dead. We gather in churches and graveyards and remember the ultimate sacrifice that was made by our countrymen so that we might live on. We cook our hot dogs and steaks, we laugh and we cry, and we go on with our lives. The servicemen gave us that freedom, and those who died are the cost of that freedom. We should ever remember their sacrifice and attempt to live a life that is worthy of it.
