I have attended the Red Hook Memorial Day service at the Memorial Park for decades now. Each year I hear the 31 names read out; after so many services, the names are familiar to me now. I try to take some time around Memorial Day each year to make their loss more personal to me; one way I do that each year is to research a bit about who they were and where they fought and died. Having the names here is a big help in doing that. The web being only a little over 30 years old, there is more data on the web for those who served in the more recent conflicts; for example, there's a lot more info about Vietnam soldiers (my era) than for those from WW1. But regardless of the era, they were all guys just like me. Again, thanks for the site!Bruce Hempelnoreply@blogger.com
