Today is the day that the United States has set aside to honor its war dead. If you're American, and maybe even if you're not, consider pausing a second to reflect on those who paid the ultimate price. And, to us, that includes not only service members killed in combat, but also civilians who were unlucky to end up in the line of fire, and also folks who "survived" their war (or wars), but were left with injuries—physical, mental or emotional—that unnaturally shortened their lifespans.
Last June, we ran roughly 20 "Never Forget" items telling the stories of people who participated in one of America's wars. This year, we're going to do it again. So, if you have a friend or relative who participated in one of America's many wars, as military or as a civilian, please consider sending their story along to us at comments@electoral-vote.com. We will start running these stories on Monday of next week. (V & Z)
