I felt the need to post this here this morning, for I find this very disturbing...
Sorry to say, but it seems to be a growing trend that out of 1000+ members, only a couple of people stop to remember our passing veterans. It saddens me to no end, that when I or others post the passing of one of "our own", literally less than a handful of our 1000+ members, stop to say farewell to our engineers. Sure people SEE the post, but most take a few seconds to read about them, and merely walk off without a word.
And yes, I know that many here are simply "readers", but I feel so sad to see that no one is willing to stop and say, Rest in Peace, sir, or thank you for your service.
These are the men that gave us their all, and,,,

I totally understand, Marion. I can imagine that for you, especially that it is very disheartening since you have such a close relationship with so many of them. One can only hope that this trend is not indicative of a lack of caring of the general public about this passing generation. Unfortunately, I think it may be. . .
