The first two explain the “why”. The last describes the holiday’s purpose.
Country
Duty
Honor
Yes, that’s a slight re-ordering of the US Military Academy’s motto. Seems kinda apropos, actually.
May your Memorial Day this year be a gentile gentle one.

More than apropos Hondo and very well spoken.
Tis the Country’s Duty to Honor. Wish more did so.
Well said Hondo

“May your Memorial Day this year be a gentile one.”
Is that a typo or should I be offended on behalf of all non-gentiles?
No, that was indeed an unintentional typo. I was pressed for time when I wrote the original, and I didn’t catch the fact that “gentile” – while spelled correctly – wasn’t exactly the word I intended to use. (smile)
Thanks for bringing that to my attention. It’s now fixed above.
