And I’m Sure I Can Speak For All Of Our RCCF Veterans & Military/LEO/ Fire/EMS Personnel….
I/We Don’t Want Any “Thank You’s” On Memorial Day…
I Will Not Give Any “Thank You’s” To Any Of Our Current Or Past Military/LEO/ Fire/EMS Personnel…

It’s Memorial Day… Not Veteran’s Day… Not Armed Forces Day… Not LEO Day… Not FireFighter Day… Not Paramedic Day… Not EMT Day… Not Dispatcher Day… Etc… Etc…
All The Men & Women Who Are Currently Serving Or Who Have Served & Are Still Alive… They Are The Ones Who Are Protecting Or Have Protected The United States Of America…
Memorial Day Is A Day To Remember & Give Thanks To Those Who Have Given Their Lives To Protect The United States Of America…
Remember Them…
You Can Go To The River… Go To The Desert… Go To The Beach… Have Friends & Family Over For A BBQ… Literally Any Single Day Of The Year…
That Being Said…
I’m Proud Of My Duties That I Performed While I Was In The United States Marine Corps…
Some Bring A Smile To My Face… Some Bring Tears Falling Down My Face… Some Make Me Proud Of Who I Am Today… Some Give Me Nightmares…
But In The End… I Came Home…
This Weekend… Have Fun… Enjoy Time With Friends & Family…
But Remember Those Who Gave Their Lives In Order To Allow You To Have This “3 Day Weekend”…
Because They… Well… They Have An Eternity Weekend…
