"Go tell the Spartans, thou that passeth by here,Next Monday is Memorial Day. Between the barbeques, picnics, and boat trips, take a moment to remember.
That here, obedient to their laws, we lie."
- inscription at Thermopylae
All we have of freedom, all we use or know -
This our fathers bought for us long and long ago.
~Rudyard Kipling, The Old Issue, 1899
Remember those that serve, those that served, and those "still on patrol." Ultimately, they did it for you and me.
They chose to serve something greater than themselves.
The Friday Furo Questus can be found, in its entirety, every Friday at The Wasatch Front.
