I realized yesterday, the day before memorial Day we should do something special. I called a few PJs and CROs I know who were friends and comrades with some of the great Operators we have lost and asked them to make few comments about their Brothers.

I apologize for not getting to more people but am committed to doing this next year and trying to tell more of the stories of the Men and these Missions.

I hope you had a great day and took time to remember the Operators we lost and think of their families.
