This Friday (the 18th) is the National POW/MIA Recognition day.
The focus is to ensure that America remembers its responsibility to stand behind those who serve our nation and do everything possible to account for those who do not return.

We should never forget even though there are members of our government that would like us to.
By faith Noah,being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear,prepared an ark to the saving of his house;by the which he condemned the world,and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith Heb.11:7
Sorry to hear it festus.
God bless bro.
