McCain on Veterans

McCain speaks to veterans and their families for Memorial Day. I think he captures the image we all should have of American veterans in these few words:


“The sacrifices made by veterans deserve to be memorialized in something more lasting than marble or bronze or in the fleeting effect of a politician's speeches. Your valor and devotion to duty have earned your country's abiding concern for your welfare. And when our government forgets to honor our debts to you, it is a stain upon America's honor.”

God Bless America.
