Letter to the editor: Remember those who sacrificed

We used to sing “God Bless America, Land that I Love.” I still do when I think that we live in the most generous country in the world.

I think of all the wars in which we have been engaged. I counted at least 10, not to mention mini engagements.

Not one of them was fought for our country’s personal gain but for the freedom for those people who long for it.

This Memorial Day may we remember those who sacrificed their lives for the freedom we enjoy.

I will continue to sing “God Bless America.”
