The meaning ofMemorial Day

Editor’s Note: This column originally ran in 2010from then VFW Commander-in-Chief Thomas J.Tradewell Sr. Its message is just as poignant today.

It’s a sacred day to all war veterans: none need tobe reminded of the reason that Memorial Day must becommemorated. But what about the general public,and more important, future generations? Do mostnon-veterans really recognize the importance of theday honoring their fellow Americans killed in war?

Judging from what Memorial Day has become—simply another day off from work—the answer is aresounding no. Perhaps a reminder is due, then. Andit is the duty of each and every veteran to relay themessage.

Sacrifice is meaningless without remembrance.America’s collective consciousness demands that allcitizens recall and be aware of the deaths of their fel-low countrymen during wartime.

Far too often, the nation as a whole takes forgranted the freedoms all Americans enjoy. Thosefreedoms were paid for with the lives of others few ofus actually knew. That’s why they are all collectivelyremembered on one special day.

This should be regarded as a civic obligation. Forthis is a national debt that can only be truly repaid byindividual Americans. By honoring the nation’s wardead, we preserve their memory and thus their serviceand sacrifice in the memories of future generations.

They came from all walks of life and regions of thecountry. But they all had one thing in common—loveof and loyalty to country. This bond cemented ties be-tween them in times of trials, allowing a diverse lot ofAmericans to achieve monumental ends.

We remember the loss of loved ones, a sense ofloss that takes group form. In essence, America iscommemorating those who made the greatest sacri-fice possible—giving one’s own life on behalf of oth-ers.

Means of paying tribute vary. Pausing for a fewmoments of personal silence is available to everyone.

Attending commemorative ceremonies is the mostvisible way of demonstrating remembrance: placingflags at gravesites, marching in parades, sponsoringpatriotic programs, dedicating memorials and wearingBuddy Poppies are examples.

Whether done individually or collectively, it is thethought that counts. Personal as well as public acts ofremembering are the ideal. Public displays of patrio-tism are essential if the notion of remembering wardead is to be instilled in youth.

As America’s older war veterans fast disappearfrom society’s landscape, there are fewer and fewerstandard-bearers left to carry the torch of remem-brance. Such traditions will live on only if there is avibrant movement to which that torch can be passed.

As the nation honors its fallen heroes on Memorial Day, May 27, we askedthese six people what the holiday means to them.

"It’s a day to honor all fellowAmericans. We all contribute to soci-ety in some way.”

"Two things: it is the official kick offto summer and it’s a day to think of mygrandfather who served in World WarII. We used to spend the day with him.He’s gone now, but I still think abouthim on Memorial Day.”

"I’m Canadian, so not much. But ifI was American, it would be a day tosay thank you to the veterans.”

Rolene Amsler,Marshall

"Because of being in the military,for me, it’s a day of getting militarypeople together for camaraderie andpatriotism. And it’s about remember-ing and showing respect for our fallensoldiers.”

Rob Winkler,Juno Beach, Fla.

"Sacrifice by million of previousveterans since 1776 so we can enjoythe life we live today.”

Jeff Scott,Marshall

"To remember friends and familythat have passed away. We go to theirgraves every year and plant flowersand have a family get-together, cook,have a good time.”

We have a great opportunity before us todayTo the Editor:The Battle Creek En-

quirer’s May 16 headline“Race an issue for Albion,Marshall” regarding theoutcome of the AlbionSchool Board’s decision toclose their high school andsend the students to Mar-shall High School was of-fensive to me as a citizen ofMarshall. It painted a pic-ture that was negative towhat these people are tryingto do.

I do understand that thiswill be a challenge for par-ents and students of bothcommunities, but it is also agreat opportunity that is be-fore us today. It will requiretwo things from all of us:

the desire and the will. Thedesire, surely, is there. Canwe summon the will? BothAlbion and Marshall par-ents must summon the willthemselves to getting thisdone. It may be difficult inthe beginning, but the fu-ture for all students couldbe a bright one if everyoneis sensitive to the needs ofthese young people.

The two communitiesmay be different, but theyalso are the same in want-ing a quality education fortheir children. Negative,one-sided articles by themedia will only sensational-ize the challenge at hand. I,for one, feel that the pressshould report unbiased, fac-

tual news, not try to makeit. There are positive thingsgoing on with all of the stu-dents and their respectivetowns.

It’s also a shame to seeadults “shooting from thehip” with negative remarks.Remember, these studentsdid not cause the dollars todwindle away from theschool district. Times aredifferent now and schooldistricts are finding them-selves with severe financialproblems.

Positive dialogue isneeded on both sides. Let itbegin. Remember, thesestudents are our future andwe must promise them thebest education for a suc-

cessful life. Do the citizens,parents, teachers, studentsand administrators have thestrength of will to changethe perceptions that exist?Remember, you cannotchange the past, but youcan learn the lessons of thepast and dedicate your-selves to perfecting the fu-ture for all students. I com-mend both Albion and Mar-shall school boards withmaking a hard decision andknow that they will worktogether for the best out-come for all students.

Kitana Espinoza wins 200, long jump at regional; qualifies for state


Marshall High Schoolfreshman Kitana Espinozacame into the May 17 regionalmeet as the number two seedin the long jump and eighthseed in the 100 meters and200 meters.

According to MarshallHigh School girls track andfield coach Steve Wissink, Es-pinoza hadn't been at her bestall season, nursing a sore ham-string.

She started her day with thelong jump, where she neededa top two finish or a jump of16' 1" to qualify for state.She jumped 16' 4" on her firstjump to qualify, and 16' 7 1/2"on her last to set the schoolrecord (previously 16' 7") towin the event.

After taking her first jumpshe checked out to run her 100meter preliminary race.

“Unfortunately shetwitched just prior to the gunand was disqualified for falsestarting,” said Wissink. “Shewas very upset and frustrated,but showed a lot of heart andmaturity by not letting this ef-fect her performances. Ithink she would have won thisevent also if given the

chance.”Espinoza breezed through

her 200 meter preliminary andsemifinal races, winning eas-ily. When the 200 meter finalgun went off, she blasted outof the blocks and “destroyed”the field, winning by .2 sec-onds. Her time of 26.53 sec-onds converts to a 26.13 handtimed, both eclipsing the pre-vious record of 26.6.

"Kitana had what has to beone of the best days in Mar-shall High School track andfield history,” said Wissink.“She felt healthy for the firsttime all season, and it cer-tainly showed. Coach (Bill)Dryer had her excellently pre-pared for the long jump, andwe anticipate even betterjumping at the State finals. Ialso think her 200 time candrop, as she hasn't been able torun too many due to injury.She has the ninth-fastest timegoing into the finals, but Ithink the top eight is very withreach, and that would makeher All-State. We really lookforward to coaching thisyoung lady for the next threeyears."
