Thanks, B., but it's not about me.... There is nothing greater than the sacrifices our armed forces personnel make. They have my most humble, deepest gratitude.notjustagirlintheworld says,

OOPS! Three decades away from the states & forgot they had long ago changed the dates. Memorial Day traditionally was celebrated on the 31st (my birthday). So my nephew Joey sang today, I think it may have been aired on HBO.
