This Memorial day, as we remember the heroes who have paid for our freedom in blood, sweat and tears, remember also that there are more heroes than just our beloved soldiers.  When you see a rifle stuck in the ground with a soldier hat atop it and a pair of boots before it, remember too that there are two more scenes that you should remember.

A fire helmet sitting atop an air tank with a pair of fireman's boots sitting before it.  This stands before a gravestone that says Fire and Rescue.

A shotgun sticking out of a policeman's boot, and atop it is a policeman's hat.  This stands before a grave stone that says Serve and Protect.

This memorial day... remember a hero...
