With the United States Navy ships "Comfort" in New Your City and the ship "Mercy" in Los Angeles, the U.S. Navy Band presents a song for you.

That song, "Lean On Me" by the late Bill Withers, who just passed away on March 30, 2020.

Thank you for letting us enjoy this, Bill.  God knows we can use some up-lifting at this point.  There's a report on the news right now that the Stony Brook VA facility has the highest death rate on Long Island.

To you, Bill, and all Members of The Site - Stay Safe and use Common Sense.

When one 95 year old World War II veteran in Woodbridge, NJ was asked; "What Memorial Day is all about", he said: "LOVE YOUR FREEDOM".

THANK YOU to ALL of our U.S. Military Veterans for all you have done and given up for us.

JUNE 6, 1944 D-DAY....NEVER FORGET ! ......... D DAY

AMERICA's GREATEST GENERATION.

They grew up during the Great Depression.
They fought for us in World War II.
Those who returned, came back and built America.

They raised their families and provided for us.
For many of us, "they taught us right from wrong".
They were Role Models within America's Greatest Days.

They will forever be known as "Americas Greatest Generation".
