HAPPY BELATED MEMORIAL DAY!
Every day should be one of remembrance of those who have fallen to protect our individual rights and freedoms enjoyed in the United States and abroad. Regardless of where one resides, paying tribute to those brave people who fought to defend others needs to be recognized by those whose lives are different because of the sacrifices made, whether on a personal level, or militarily.
We should never forget history to avoid allowing the same thing to happen again on a different level by different actors!
The photo shown above is part of America’s erased history in the City of McDonough, Georgia, where the statue once stood in the middle of the town square. Personally, even though parts of history may be unpleasant and shameful, it is still history; trying to rewrite it for political agenda may be harmful when politicians manipulate the masses and choose to erase it by covering up or destroying what reminds others of the atrocities. The rulers in the Soviet Union were notorious about destroying historical monuments to be replaced with their version. As for the photo above, whoever that soldier was, and regardless of which side of the war he fought, he was still a part of some family.
