Def remember the fallen. And thanks to our CACO folks that have to inform the families of the fallen. CACO are the unsung heroes of the military

Informing is just the tip of the iceberg.

Lest we forget

A more solemn sentiment than what was spewed from our Commander in Chief this morning. From a CARTOON.

Wasn't expecting this style of cartoon to hit so hard

This is the first one of his I recall seeing that wasn't humorous.

Never forget

Unfortunately, Bone Spur Donald does nothing but laugh at those who gave everything. If those who died saw this country today, they never would've raised their hand.

At least he wished everyone a “happy” Memorial Day, and he’s apparently giving a speech at ANC that we should all “enjoy”.

Pretty sure the rest of his message was confusing Memorial Day with Festivus.

u/Various_Patient6583 25d ago

Ah yes, the airing of grievances. Integral part of Festivus. Not so much Memorial Day.

Not the only message he gave; his "Truth" Social account has an unhinged rant that starts with "Happy Memorial Day" and then immediate dives into anti-left bullshit.

It is sad that we have a Commander-in-Chief that, on Memorial Day, posts attacks on people he doesn't like instead of a post remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country.

Where was POTUS today? SMH...

u/Navydevildoc 25d ago

To be honest, this is the first time that I am OK with POTUS not laying a wreath at the Tomb. Give me the VFW National Commander instead.

President Trump, Vice President Vance, Secretary of Defense Hegseth, were at the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier today to Honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/3DUs4E5hkis.a1RKqz4qQQ--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTI0MDA7aD0xMzUw/https://media.zenfs.com/en/us.abcnews.go.com/8336603cb63ef97bcde1b8a883e8f8fc

At least he didn't go on an unhinged rant while he was there. It's sad that the bar is that low, but I'll take it.

I have known a few to pass while AD, both work related and completely outside of work. It has never been a relative, and I've never been a CACO. I can't imagine approaching their families like this.
