Every year for Memorial Day, there is the “Field of Heroes” in Pocatello. Crosses are set up like a military cemetery in rows and columns. It is a really impressive display to visit.
There is a cross for each military person killed in Iraq or Afghanistan. There is also a cross for each POW from Viet Nam. There are a LOT of crosses. Many people help put this together and local businesses donated wood for the crosses and paint among other things.
When I go there, it has a feeling that is very similar to military cemeteries I have visited. It is very humbling to see how many people have sacrificed their lives to preserve freedom, protect us, and keep us free. I feel the sacred nature of their sacrifice and that of their families. We can never repay that debt, but we have a responsibility to remember them, and do our part to preserve freedom so their deaths were not in vain.
