While having a day off from work is a very nice thing, we mush never forget the reason that we have it off. Memorial Day is a day of remembrance of the men and women who have served America. While War is a terrible thing, there have and continue to be men and women that have defended America to have the freedoms that we all take for granted.

Both DC Comics and Marvel Comics supported our troops during WWII and there were many charaters  and comic titles that were inspired by the armed forces. Like the Losers and Captain America.
