A Memorial Day note to a young man with wings



In the course of writing about you for Salute!, I feel that I got at least a little sense of you as a human being, and it’s deepened my appreciation considerably.
Your son is having a long, fine life, and my understanding is that your daughter is as well.
You’ll be pleased to know our side beat the bad guys and saved Western civilization.
I can’t say how it’s going to go from here, but you and your fellow patriots bought us a whole lot of decades, the decades in which I’ve lived.
God surely has you in his eternal embrace.
Sincerely,
BQ
