Having lost a close family member to war, I struggle with this so-called "holiday" each year, but I think this photo may come close to summing it up for both current and previous generations.
When my grandparents, members of the Greatest Generation, and some of the strongest people I have ever known, lost their son, my uncle, they were never again the same and the pain never abated.
That said, please do not wish anyone a "happy" Memorial Day.
