Remembering this Memorial Day.
We will never know all of our brothers & sisters that served their Country in time of war but we will always remember their sacrifice.
Frank & David close friends of mine from MCC served in WWII in the Navy both were at Pearl Harbor. Frank passed away two years ago & David is still here with us. After the war they became a couple and kept it a secret until the 80's when they finally came out to their respective families.
They were still together at Frank's passing. How many other stories are their like this one?
On a happier note, lets also remember this Memorial Day that DADT & the discrimination before it is dead. Their is still kinks to be worked out with LGBT service members because of DOMA but we are making progress over the years.
Memorial Day is a solemn day, but it is also a day to also celebrate the memories of the one's we have lost.
