Today is Memorial Day, and America honors all the men and women who fell in its armed services. When our son was a kid and a Boy Scout, each year he and the other members of his troop would spend a few hours on the weekend prior to Memorial Day to decorate the thousands of graves on Golden Gate National Cemetery with little American flags. We don’t pose as patriots. Not in life and not on social media. The typical social media patriot wouldn’t even think of us as “real Americans”. We’re a mixed-race, non-Christian family of immigrants in a blue state Nevertheless, our son is grown now, and last week he graduated from the Army’s Officer Candidate School. We couldn’t be more proud! #MemorialDay #army
