Yesterday Stefan Stanford reported on Memorials for our nation's veterans were being vandalized and destroyed, and today we see news of more senseless destruction as Cedar Falls Freedom Rock was vanadalized and a man reportedly drove through a Kentucky Memorial cross display while Virginia's National Park Service says a portion of the Petersburg National Battlefield has been declared a crime scene after looting, and a 91 year-old WWII veteran was beaten with an oxygen tank.

Horrible people doing horrible things on a weekend where much of the country is honoring those that died in active military service, those that laid their lives on the line for America, whether the wars they fought were just or unjust, these men and women paid the ultimate price for the decisions of the nation's leaders and they deserve to be honored.

There are bright spots in the midst of all the darkness, such as a "rise in patriotism" sparking a massive rise in American flag sales, and companies providing free Memorial Day offers and discounts, such as JC Penny, Hooters, Red Robin, Outback, Shoney's, Sears and others.

Which brings me to the headlined topic, where we see that a Chic-fil-A in Pennsylvania has done a couple of extraordinary things that has active and former military members along with their families offering their thanks in the comment section of their Facebook page.

First they set up a box, filled with little toy soldiers, encouraging patrons to "Please take a soldier home and place it somewhere that will remind you to pray for those that serve our country."
