On Memorial Day We Honor Those Who Served

This weekend will be filled with Memorial Day parades and solemn ceremonies honoring our war dead. We'll stand and salute the flag as the veterans march past. Some will be old and bent, others will struggle past in wheelchairs or on crutches, some will seem far too young.

At County Stamp Center we thank the men and women of our armed forces who protect our country and fight for freedom at home and abroad. We honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice protecting our country. They fought courageously so that we might all be free. They live on in our memories. To all, you have our enduring thanks.
