[QUOTE="Ozark Wizard, post: 458363, member: 3652"] Memorial Day...... Nothing like remembering those of your unit and what happened to them. To us. There are two of us left now. My brother in arms has very recently finished his chemo. I am taking him to Oregon with me to see his mother in hospice, and say goodbye. My youngest is graduating. Joni Mitchell said it well. "Death and birth and death and birth, bring a bottle and I'll pad your purse. I have a head full of quandary and a mighty mighty thirst........ BBQ? Family gatherings? Sure! We should do that more often, without excuse, for solidarity. Tradition. Bonding. I will do that with my father when I head west as well. We will make small talk. How are the girls, the cats, other superfluous conversation. The story in our eyes, our unit, who is left and who has gone, the places we've been. Those will be the understood underlying communiques. fishnbanjo, your story sounds wonderful, successful, and informative. Thank you! Best wishes to all this holiday weekend! [/QUOTE]
