Thank you for remembering the true reason for “Decoration” Day. I decorated 13 graves and put flags for an uncle who served in the Navy, another uncle who was in the Army, a third uncle who was in the Army Air Corps and survived the Bataan death march, an aunt who was a WAC, and a family friend who was a Marine.
This is so sweet. I do’t read a lot of the comics, but so far you are the only one to pay tribute to this special day. Thank you so much for Snow Sez & for this lovely nod to the day. Have a nice Memorial Day everyone.
I just sat and stared at the beautiful simplicity. Protecting one who served while he honors those who served and lost everything. Thank you T. You are one of a kind. And kind.
I just realized that was a poppy that Gimpy is offering. The VFW used to give out paper poppies in exchange for donations. I haven’t seen any in a long time. Perhaps I’m just missing the areas where they are being offered.
Lovely tribute, T!I think I mentioned this before somewhere on here, but my mother was a LT. in the Army Nurse Corp. She rode the hospital trains and worked at Walter Reed Army Hospital. She met Jimmy Doolittle and Eleanor Roosevelt.

I put a little flag on the kitchen window grate. My last one disappeared.
