To me it is more solemn than happy.  Too many gave all so the rest of us might not have to.   ::USA:: ::USA::
I'm entitled (to be cranky).

 ::USA::
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Sometimes mere words cannot express the gratitude we have for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep us safe.

The true soldier fights not because he hates what's in front of him...but loves what's behind him.

2 Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but of power & of love and of calm, a well-balanced mind, discipline and self-control.
