OPINION: Oh, I guess we all just enjoy Memorial Day now, ha! Ha!

The following is an opinion written by A Veteran.

HIGH HORSE, W.Va. — Oh hey, what's up America? I couldn't help but be a little nosy after hearing all the party noise and uh, oh my! What do we have here? A big cookout with friends and family, eh? Hot dogs and cupcakes and music? Is that a keg? Wow! Great way to remember our fallen military, America. Really thoughtful.

I see the kids all doing cannonballs in the pool over there. That’s great. A lot of fun. I’m sure all the Revolutionary War dead who took a cannon ball to the face would love to be here cheering them on right now. Oh look, they've got their Super Soakers out, too, because war is a fun game! What a perfect day for that lesson!
