Memorial Day … why just one day?

I look like a disgruntled something or other.
In my relatively new gig as the editor of The Island News, I wrote a column last week about the way we celebrate Memorial Day and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we might be free.
I figured I might as well start sharing my columns here. And this is the first one.
The premise is this … why do we celebrate our fallen patriots only one day a year? Shouldn’t we do better to honor them?
I make that argument here …
