Had often wondered why they say "happy" Memorial Day? It's always been a rather somber day for me...

Ashly was a good friend of mine. Gone, but certainly not forgotten.

Enjoy that which they fought and died for, that is the Happy.
@glennlab Ah, I see. For me personally, grateful would probably be a more fitting word there.
I lost a member of my unit in SEA, he is on the Wall in DC, and one of the most emotional times was when I visited the Wall and saw his name. I am still conflicted about that war and my role, but I came home, 58,000 didn't.
Enjoy being online again!
