What’s better than a rare Super Delta formation featuring the Thunderbirds and the @USNavy Blue Angels over Washington, D.C.?

Out of 16.4 million Americans who served in WWII, only about 40,000 are still alive.
They’re dying at a rate of ~100 per day.
These are the heroes who saved the world from tyranny.
Find one. Thank one. Listen to their stories.
While you still can.

Today, and every day, I remember and thank those who have served and sacrificed so we may live free, safe lives.
Always grateful. Always remember. #MemorialDay
“General Order No. 11, Headquarters, Grand Army of the Republic, Washington, D.C., May 5, 1868: The 30th day of May 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, and hamlet churchyard in the land. In this observance, no form or ceremony is prescribed, but posts and comrades will in their own way arrange such fitting services and testimonials of respect as circumstances may permit. We are organized, comrades, as our regulations tell us, for the purpose, among other things, “of preserving and strengthening those kind and fraternal feelings which have bound together the soldiers, sailors, and marines who united to suppress the late rebellion.” What can aid more to assure this result than by cherishing tenderly the memory of our heroic dead, who made their breasts a barricade between our country and its foes? Their soldier lives were the reveille of freedom to a race in chains, and their death a tattoo of rebellious tyranny in arms. We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance. All that the consecrated wealth and taste of the Nation can add to their adornment and security is but a fitting tribute to the memory of her slain defenders. Let no wanton foot tread rudely on such hallowed grounds. Let pleasant paths invite the coming and going of reverent visitors and fond mourners. Let no vandalism of avarice or neglect, no ravages of time, testify to the present or to the coming generations that we have forgotten, as a people, the cost of free and undivided republic. If other eyes grow dull and other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it well as long as the light and warmth of life remain in us…”
-Gen. John A. Logan

Dave Ramsey explains how manhood and masculinity became "toxic" and why it led to 7.2 million men sitting at home doing NOTHING every day…👀
“Men have been devalued and trivialized and been the villain or the clown of everything for a good 20 years. You don't see a TV commercial where the dad is the hero... he's an idiot. Or a sitcom where the dad is the hero... he's an idiot.
The 12-year-old is the smart one, and they smart off through the whole script. And the dad's a doofus and the mother rolls her eyes at the doofus that she picked as a life partner.
If you do that to any segment of the economy long enough, eventually they begin to believe it. And so we have 7.2 million men that are able-bodied, able-minded, that are not engaged in the workplace right now.
They're doing nothing. They're sitting because the entire culture has said, 'You're a doofus, you're a buffoon, you're valueless. Manhood, masculinity is toxic by its very nature, and so you're of no value.'
And the problem is it's destroying not only economics, but social fabric as well because we do know the data on kids, particularly daughters. The cues they take from their dad are devastatingly impactful, good or bad.
And so an engaged dad who builds confidence and, gives their daughter hugs growing up, until she leaves home and even after she leaves home, builds a confident daughter. A daughter that is not sexually promiscuous. A daughter that finishes college. A daughter that will not be victimized in the marketplace. That comes from their dads. The data shows that.
And so when the dad is not engaged, it's horrible for the social fabric.”
