I had borrowed Band of Brothers from a friend. And it sat on my shelf for a few months. And then on Memorial Day Eve I thought, "I should start watching this," so I did. And I cried. War makes me sad. And people who are brave enough to fight and die for what is right, well, their stories make me cry.
I continued watching on Memorial Day. And I read some articles about men portrayed in the miniseries. And I cried. Tears in honor of the friends they lost and the men they had to be.
More than 1 million U.S. service members have died in war. It is these men and women I honor today. May I live up to their sacrifice.
