Pick of the day: Thinking of Memorial Day

We've started a blog called the Impact of War, which examines just that. We're asking all sorts of people--soldiers, their families, caregivers, experts, academics--to write about how the wars resonate today, nine years after 9/11. I figured we'd get some powerful responses. But this post, from Rachel Porto, a Marine Corps widow and new mother, floored me. Have a great Memorial Day weekend.
