On Memorial Day

Overnight Tramadol Visa Manchester has seemingly been invaded by tourists and city folk; I can’t walk down the sidewalk without passing someone in designer clothes and heels clutching gaggles of shopping bags. It’s the first holiday of the summer, and tourists are in full swing.

Since 1861 or 1862 (various records are conflicting—suffice to say it was during the Civil War) folks have observed the first Monday in May as a day to honor the men and women who have died while serving in our country’s armed forces.

While many of my best friends are either active duty or retired military, it was an eye-opening experience to see both sides of the military spectrum. At Leonard Wood, I watched recruits take their first steps off the bus into their new lives. We did PT at 0430h, ran through a confidence obstacle course, went through weapons simulation training, and observed night infiltration training under the murky Missouri sky. At Leavenworth, I was able to talk with some of our country’s military leaders, explore the higher levels of training within our military, and talk with foreign officers currently posted at the base for advanced training. And be evacuated from a building due to a bomb scare during the visit of a Chinese delegation, and in that process talk with some pretty awesome guys.
