I'm looking forward to a long weekend, and hoping that during part of it, I'll keep in my memory those who have come before me that sacrificed to allow me to live in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

C-Span (both 1 & 2) is going to spend most of the next 3 days with the WW2 veterans and their memorial dedication. Many are calling this weekend in DC the Greatest Generation's Woodstock.

I'm listening to one of the GG-ers right now telling about his experience in the Pacific front and being a POW. It's fascinating and a story that is being lost, as 1000 of these guys are dying per day.

I'm looking forward to spending more time with these guys this weekend.
