In Memoriam
It is Memorial Day today in the USA. In honor of the occasion, here is a view of the Pacific Theatre section of the United States World War II Memorial on the mall in Washington, DC. At the back left can be seen the Washington Monument – dedicated to the memory of the first commander-in-chief of American forces and later the first President. Next to this can be seen the US flag, and below it the POW-MIA flag, in remembrance of all those who were prisoners of war or missing in action while fighting for their country. I wish you all the best on this Memorial Day, and I join with you in honoring and showing respect for those who have given the ultimate sacrifice in order to try to make the world a better, freer, safer, and ultimately more peaceful place – in every nation and corner of the earth.
