On not forgetting

My dad sent me this article today. I think it would be worthwhile for everyone to take a moment and read it.

**edited to add** my dad sent this because one of our friends was in this class and was interviewed. Also interesting fact the President was scheduled to give the graduation speech to Kings Point that year (it was the same year uber graduated) and he blew them off for West Point. I am not surprised though considering Kings Point cadets are not obligated to go active duty (uber didn't he is an inactive ready reservist most of them don't go active duty from what I understand) so it wouldn't of had the same relevance. However, Secretary Mineta (former Secretary of Transportation) gave them basically the same speech.
