As a 9-11 survivor and first-responder this picture brought me to tears.
Thank you and G-d Bless America.

Hashem Bless America (as we know, he does every single day of the year, making this country the best country for practicing Jews in the history of the world)

G-d Bless America and all our troops all over the world. It would be nice to see all private schools closed for Memorial Day to honor all the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrafice to our country.

@Lakewood Resident,

The fact that we stay open and daven & learn is showing our patriotism in the best way possible. Don’t forget that a war is fought on two fronts. The physical, and the spiritual.

I disagree with your perception thats just an excuse for not being respectful for a national holiday that is not a religious holiday

even tho im a vet no one thanked me, and ive been living among you for 10yrs..! ive more than paid my dues, my father freed one of the camps during ww2…he killed 4 officers and g-d knows how many men ..and you just collect on the proceeds. having a fire works display on labor day is an insult…..
