Description
Memorial Day ~ Remembering Those Who Gave The Ultimate Sacrifice
“It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people , and for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” - Abraham Lincoln

Very powerful and heartbreaking image, Wayne! Everyone headstone represents someone who died for us...so we could vote. I hope everyone is voting this time.

Excellent capture Wayne! —Love the rays of sunshine! I remember how deeply moved I felt ,visiting Arlington National Cemetery, seeing endless rows of white stone markers. I remember being mesmerized; from every angle a new perfectly aligned pattern emerged. L&F
