Today, we honor those who have sacrificed their lives defending our freedoms, fighting evil, and protecting good as well as those who have survived wars but are no longer with us.

We also would like to thank the eGO members who have served in the military.

Whether you are with your family and eating barbeque, or at home getting decent frags and scores, EdgeGamers Leadership wishes you and your family a safe and happy Memorial Day!</div>​

We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

It seems to be a "natural thing" for people in this Country to only concentrate & complain about the bad stuff that happens here without weighing those with the good. And I'll admit, I'm guilty of it as well at times. But there still isn't a single Country in the world better than the US, & alot of that has to do with the Military.

Some people may not like or respect the reasons that our Soldiers are at war, but at atleast support those that are there.

Happy Memorial day to everyone. And thanks to everyone who has served. I don't care if you are/were just a reserve. All of it is very much appreciated.

Happy Memorial Day!

Make sure to take time to pay some respect to all of the military personnel, who fought and sacrificed for all of us.

God bless and be with you all!

In Your Honor

Unselfishly, you left your fathers and your mothers,
You left behind your sisters and your brothers.
Leaving your beloved children and wives,
You put on hold, your dreams-your lives.
On foreign soil, you found yourself planted
To fight for those whose freedom you granted.
Without your sacrifice, their cause would be lost
But you carried onward, no matter the cost.

Many horrors you had endured and seen.
Many faces had haunted your dreams.
You cheered as your enemies littered the ground;
You cried as your brothers fell all around.

When it was over, you all came back home,
Some were left with memories to face all alone;
Some found themselves in the company of friends
As their crosses cast shadows across the land.

Those who survived were forever scarred
Emotionally, physically, permanently marred.
Those who did not now sleep eternally
'Neath the ground they had given their lives to keep free.

With a hand upon my heart, I feel The pride and respect; my reverence is revealed
In the tears that now stream down my upturned face
As our flag waves above you, in her glory and grace.
Freedom was the gift that you unselfishly gave
Pain and death was the price that you ultimately paid.
Every day, I give my utmost admiration
To those who had fought to defend our nation.

God bless everyone that gave something to make this great nation the way that it is today. And God bless those that gave everything to make sure that we are still here today.

Happy Memorial Day
