V The Power of Memorial Day by BETTER BIDV Dr, Norman Vincent Peale I MOW-- LATER o had the privilege of growing up in small Ohio communities in the early part of this century, and one of my most inspirational memories centers around Memorial Day and the old soldiers of the Civil War. naTo me. Memorial Day was one of the most moving of all the from music martial tional holidays. I was stirred by the speeches and the bandstand or cemetery on what we called "Decoration Day." There was something about the newness of life that the Spring had of early sumbrought; soft sunshine falling on the fresh green grass national of sound the stirring hills the in distance, mer, the misty breeze as songs, and above all, the softly flapping flag in the gentle the speaker told us of our country, the deep devotion of its heroes, and recounted once more the stirring episodes of our heroic past And many a lazy summer afternoon, I sat on the coping around the old courthouse listening to the veterans of the Civil War tell of their experiences in the epic struggle between the States. A boys I imagination quickly sent him off behind long columns of blue or grey, and to Fim, such names as Antietam, The Wilderness, Shiloh, and Gettysburg became very real and meaningful. Those old soldiers used to talk gratefully of Lincolns insistence that those who had borne the heat of the battle and the burden of the struggle, the widow and the orphan, were to be given not charity, but their rightful due as the dependents of those brave men who had refought to preserve liberty and to keep the Union intact. It was with faith the and nation the of sacred kept nation, a as duty garded its veterans. In those days, as now, were many who had been disabled by the struggle. Their ability to compete in life had been reduced by wounds suffered in battle. Even as a boy I remember hearing how it seemed they were thought of only on such days as Memorial Day, when orators, fervent in their patriotism, remembered, if only for a day, the long continuing sacrifice made not by those who had died in ' battle, but by the disabled who were to live for many years following the great struggle. The heroes of World War I and World War II and the Korean War are, of course, men who, with no concern for themselves, gave their lives that freedom might live. We can never do them adequate honor. And, we must never forget them. They died in their young life, forsaking the opportunities of the years that the rest of us might live and develop our highest hopes and dreams. However, there are other living heroes who deprived themselves of either physical, emotional, or mental health for us and for their fellow countrymen. It would be as wrong for us to neglect or forget them as their buddies who today sleep on some Pacific Island or in a European cemetery. A hero dead or a hero maimed and disabled are both due our equal gratitude and our unceasing devotion. We must never forget that the most effective way of honoring those who have died is to remember the living disabled, that their lives may be rich and full They are a great asset to our country as the living embodiment of devotion to freedom. A country is recreant indeed which does not everlastingly keep alive grateful appreciation to those who suffered disability to perpetuate everything that we Americans hold dear. There could be no better time than on Memorial Day to resolve that we shall gratefully support the honored men and women who have suffered disability from the wars of the United States.
