Veterans Memorial Today

Veterans Memorial Today 
August 31, 1861 near the Nevada Border.
Texter was shoeing his friend wild Billy younger. The boots was bent and it was a 
hard task to master. We need a day to celebrate the dead not yet killed in the 
Cival War to come. Wild Billy Younger looked at his friend so thoughtful he said 
Tex are you seeing visions of the future where is that whiskey bottle give it back to 
me. That stuff will rot your gut and make it easily lose its ability to eat. On a day 
like this one we need to celebrate the dead the veterans already been deceased. 
Then on a weekend like this in the very next month we need to do it all again and 
worship all of them the living and the dead ones and call it a memorial. Wild Billy 
Younger just smiled at his new boots on. Texter the cork is in the whiskey but still 
you have it wrong. The first day is for dead ones the Memorial Day is then the next 
month is for the living ones then the Veterans Day.
