"This Memorial Day, Talk About the War"

Today, I received the following message from Paul Rieckhoff, Executive Director, Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. Paul is asking "We the People" to never forget our troops and to Pay Attention, ask questions, and Speak Up.

"Dear IAVA Supporter,

This Memorial Day, how can you best honor the sacrifices of Troops, Veterans, and their families? This holiday weekend, we're asking you to make a commitment to remember the Troops and Veterans -- by talking about the war with your friends, your family, and in your community.

* If you're planning on attending a Memorial Day event, please bring along the our Memorial Day flier.

* If you're the family member or friend of a vet, ask them about their experiences. And help them get the support they need by telling them to join IAVA's TroopNet.

* If you're an IAVA supporter, tell a friend to learn more about the war .

Please help make this Memorial Day more than a long weekend. It only takes a minute to remind your friends and family of the sacrifices our Troops and Veterans have made. Thank you for being a part of IAVA, and for helping build this crucial national dialogue about Iraq."
