I share these pictures every year on Memorial Day. They are from the funeral of CPT. Josh McClimans of Jamestown, Pa. It's a reminder that freedom is not free. This was such an amazing day. It was so moving. So many people gathered for a single cause. You could feel the unity in the air. This is America right here. The idiots from the Westboro group that I refuse to call a church had threatened to pull something here. If they would have, I can tell you it would not have ended well for them. McClimans was shot April 22 near Kabul, as he was on his way to work at an Army hospital. He would have turned 31 on May 12.
