Epitaph For An Unknown Soldier

For Memorial Day, 2023... Rest now The wind knows your name It is heard in the song it sings to the stars Now you can rest And rest assured that no day Shall erase you From the memory of time

We never forget their great sacrifice Jim, I salute each and every one But for them we'd be living under a dictatorship. Tom

Thanks, Tom. And if Donald Trump ever gets his way again...we very well could be.
