Thank you for pausing a moment to remember each fallen soldier who gave their lives for the vision of freedom from our nations eyes.  I bow to them, this Memorial Day weekend.  Here’s one for you,  it’s Beyonce’s version of Lee Greenwood’s song, God Bless the USA.

And I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

~Lee Greenwood
