Question of the Day: Who Do You Remember on Memorial Day?

Today is a time to reflect and think about those who gave their lives for our country. Who do you remember?

Today is Memorial Day, a day to remember and reflect upon those who gave their lives to defend our country.

Originally called Decoration Day for the  decorating of grave sites of fallen soldiers during the  Civil War, the holiday expanded after World War I to honor those who have died in all American wars.

So as we reflect today, we want to know: who do you think of today?

To all those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, we want to say: Thank you.
