RE: Winona, MN Vet teaches youngsters about the past and sacrifice
Hallowed ground indeed, I was at the WW2 memorial in Washington DC a few years back and saw lots of folks climbing on monuments, wading in fountains etc, and it made me sick. I don't know that people understand the significance of these hallowed places really is. As a vet, I sure do.
I agree these monuments are sacred. That being said this particular vet missed a golden opportunity to teach these young people about what happened and what it actually means.
