Private First Class Tonimarie A. Morrow with the 444th Chemical Company, Illinois Army National Guard, ‘enjoys’ a breakfast MRE at NTC, 26 MAY 2017.
Illinois, Kansas and Mississippi National Guard units are spending their Memorial weekend at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California. Before you watch the video’s I noticed most everybody says “have a happy Memorial Day”. The problem is that Memorial Day is not supposed to be ‘happy’, it’s about your fellow citizens being killed in combat.

First Lieutenant Jamie Felix wishes everybody a “safe Memorial Day.”
