Military Monday - Memorial Day

Arlington National Cemetery

Memorial Day is a day to remember the men and women who gave their lives while serving in the US Armed Forces. My great-uncle Julius Councill was killed in action on August 12, 1918 in a battle in Fismette, France during WWI. He is buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
