My thoughts on Memorial Day are simple. I think that it's an honor for our fellow soldiers and others in the military to fight for our country. It takes a lot for someone to actually risk their life, leave their famil, and fight for our country. I think that the least we can do is honor thoes who have died for us. Soldiers do a lot of our country weather we realize it or not. I think that Momerial Day is more than a day off from school or even a day off from work we should at least take 5 minutes of our day on Monday and give 1 minute of silence to honor thoes who have died for us. It isn't easy being a soldier and giving your all to serve our country.
