Thank you for this post Rick. It's nice that you recognize both veteran's and martial artists.

Personally, I differentiate Memorial Day and Veteran's Day. The former as being more solemn and as a tribute to those that have died and the latter for those veterans both living and dead.

I've had people thank me for my service in the Army on Memorial Day before and I jokingly wonder what they know that I don't and hope they don't have a sixth sense.

I recognize the diffrence However why wait. I think that we should recognize these men and women everyday.
