Remembering Our Soldiers
More than just a day off or the traditional start of summer, Memorial Day gives us a chance to remember all those who have died in service to our country. My father and my uncles all served in World War II, and I grew up hearing about what life was like during the war. From the double date that was interrupted by the announcement that the Japanese had just bombed Pearl Harbor to the marriage that took place during a furlough, my parents' stories were the stories of their generation--a generation at war. With American men and women serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, we, too, are a generation at war. Unlike our parents, however, we can turn to the Internet for up-to-the-minute information on the ongoing conflict. Here are just a few examples of the many excellent sites designed to connect us to our men and women in the armed forces:
