Another Memorial Day already. They come so fast now.

Another year, another Memorial day

So many not directly touched by effects of war can see it as a Holiday. But for the family members, friends and service members of the fallen there is no forgetting the meaning of the day. No matter the time lapsed or generations passing, we remember.
For myself, 50 years and 20 days after means the hair is a bit whiter, the walk a little more difficult, But the memory so vivid it could have been yesterday.

"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
