Memorial Day 2009

The brave die never, though they sleep in dust: Their courage nerves a thousand living men.
~Minot J. Savage





“Without heroes, we are all plain people, and don't know how far we can go”

-Bernard Malamud



And each man stands with his face in the light of his own drawn sword. Ready to do what a hero can.

-Elizabeth Barrett Browning




And via Gateway Pundit, a tribute video that always brings a lump to my throat:




The dead soldier's silence sings our national anthem. ~Aaron Kilbourn

May God protect the souls of the fallen, as they have protected us.
