Enjoy your holiday weekend, but please take some time to honor the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Their sacrifice helped create the country and freedoms that many of us enjoy. This is not a political podcast or statement. We don’t care whether you are a Democrat or Republican or anything else. We are Americans and these soldiers deserve our gratitude. Honor them by taking a few minutes from your celebrations this weekend to think of what they sacrificed.
