6.Should Memorial Day be a time to remember only veterans or all those who have died?

I think Memorial Day is a time to remember all those who have fought for our country whether they are still alive or have passed away. Just because there are soldiers who aren't alive anymore doesn't mean there is any less reason to honor what they did for us. They have done just as much as the veterans still alive today. The soldiers who died during the war aren't as fortunate as the soldiers who were able to survive through the war. All the soliders are the reason why we live in such an amazing country and why we all have freedoms. It's important to honor and remember every single man and woman who have risked their own life for every person in the United States. In times of war these men and women have stepped up to serve our country even if it meant that they might not survive. It is an honor to be a soldier and each one should be recognized and remembered for what they have done. Memorial Day should be a time to realize how fortunate we are to live in America and be able to have freedom. We wouldn't be living the way we are today if it weren't for the soldiers who have fought for our freedom and our rights. I consider myself and every other person living in this country exremely fortunate and I thank the people who have made this possible for us today.
