As a disabled veteran how do you celebrate Memorial Day?

Many Americans celebrate the day with picnics and barbeques.   Others, such as veterans, their families and friends, often have a different idea about "celebrating" the holiday.  When your life has been affected by a service related injury or disability Memorial Day has much more meaning.

Instead of partying, many Americans use the day take time to remember those who have lost their lives while defending our country.  For a group of over 1,000 veterans, their families and friends, gathering in a Florida cemetery was their way of paying tribute to fallen service members.  In addition, the day was an opportunity to honor those who have been wounded while serving their country. 

The day of remembrance and respect is also a reminder to support the over 2 million new veterans created by the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.  One way to give and receive help is through the website: USA Together.  The site matches veterans with contributors, helping them meet their needs and get back on their feet after a deployment.
