Belated Memorial Day Thoughts

Good man, good gun: a private of the armored forces does some practice shooting with a 30-calibre Browning machine gun, Fort Knox, Ky. The gun is mounted on a pedestal for anti-aircraft work
I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day activities, and took a moment to remember the purpose of the day.  Severe storms in Memphis over the weekend left many (including me) without power, which is why my usual Memorial Day post is late.  Photo courtesy of the Library of Congress Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information Color Photographs collection.
