A Day to Remember

It's a day that is remembered throughout all America.  Prior to September 11, 2001, Americans don't remember being attacked by other countries, with the exception of those who lived through the bombing of Pearl Harbor. 


And because this is a day of remembrance, it should not be filled with heavy words.  I will simply remind people of two quotes from President Ronald Reagan that still ring true today:




"Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have."


"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."


Thank you to all our brave Americans: military, fireman, police officers, civilians... everyone.
