A moving post about Memorial Day at Treppenwitz:
I was reminded as we sat down for our last big family breakfast together... with my parent's luggage stacked neatly near the door.
I was reminded when we got to the airport and the flags were flying stiffly at half staff against a lead-gray sky... lest happy vacationers forget the steep price paid (in blood) for the privilege of an Israeli airport.
I am going to take my mother-in-law to the airport tonight, but then it will be Yom Ha`asma'ut (יום העצמאות) - Independence Day.
