Happy Memorial Day

This picture really moved me. I think we obviously appreciate our soldiers but forget the ones they leave behind. We all know the sacrifices our troops make everyday, but how hard it must be to lose the one you love without knowing what their last moments were like. Were they alone, did they feel pain, were they scared? A lot of these families don't see their loved ones for long periods of time before hearing of their death. They just wake up one day and realize that the last time they held them was it. What a horrible feeling. My heart really goes out to those who lose their loved ones for the sake of my freedom. Thank you to all of the soldiers and the families for making the ultimate sacrifice.
