Murph Challenge

Formerly known as Memorial Day Murph!
This thing has taken off. Check out Murph Challenge

Memorial Day is not a "happy" holiday...
This is a day for the men and women that have TRULY sacrificed to give us our freedom.
This is a day to remember the fallen...OUR HEROES...pay our respect & show some gratitude!

Some find this concept trivial...it is those same individuals that these people fought for to allow them to have that opinion! Try having a differing opinion in Saudi, Afghanistan, Iraq, Sudan or any middle east country and see where it gets you! There is a reason they warn Americans about travel...
BTW ~ Have you ever heard of a country WARNING their citizens to "be ware" of traveling to the USA for fear of being kidnapped, killed or beaten?!?!?!
