All I seem to do is thank you for your posts. I showed the pictures to a friend of mine here at work who returned from Iraq around 6-months ago. He is coping as a new combat veteran, he is proud of what he did, and would go again if his unit is sent (but doesn't want to).

I also showed the pictures to another guy here at work who is Kurdish. Every time he sees something like this, he chokes up. Coalition Soldiers and Marines have done something that the Kurdish people will never forget. His love for America and runs deep - same goes for his family in Iraq.

Here in the States, Monday is Memorial Day, where we honor our war dead. My job will be to teach my little girl (7 years) what this holiday means.

God bless!

On this Memorial Day holiday here in the states, where we remember those who died for freedom, I am reminded of the free Polish troops who fought on the allied side during WWII in Italy and France. Those brave countryless men fought and died for freedom next to British, Canadian, and American soldiers for the liberation of their own country and for the rest of Europe.

Sadly, the Communists beat us to Warsaw and the bondage and darkness in Poland would last a little longer. We are thankful that the dawn has finally come to them. Most of those Poles who fought alongside the allies would not see a free Poland in their lifetimes. I hope some of them are still alive to see their dream realized by what is happening there today.

Of all the nations of Europe, none so encapsulates the bloody, opressive history of the continent quite like Poland. Poles have been invaded and occupied not once, but repeatedly in their history by the likes of Napoleaon, Hitler, and Stalin. Poles have been recipiants of some of the worst attrocieties known to man, and yet, they have never been conquored. There is still a Poland because their spirit endures.

I pledge on this Memorial Day to try and remember not just the American sacrifice for freedom, but that of so many others in so many different parts of the world. The red stripes on my country's flag represent the blood of those who have died in the service of liberty; like those Polish soldiers of WWII and those in Iraq who serve so that I can be FREE.

Be strong brave country.
