The Brave

And they who for
their country die
shall fill an
honored grave
for glory lights
the soldier's tomb
and beauty weeps
the brave.

This flag is flying on the dock of Tahoe Cruises over looking Lake Tahoe. I posted in honor of Memorial Day...a day of remembrance. Best on black.

I hadn't realised you had a Memorial Day at this time of year. Guess I am only used to the November 11th date in the UK. Lovely image for a poignant day.

Another quote: "Our Flag does not fly because the wind blows it; It flies with the last breath of Every Soldier who died defending it."

@homeschoolmom Thank you Lisa! That was the other quote I was deciding between. :)
