Retired Air Force Major Glenn Ignazio said: “This Memorial Day is a memory for those who lost their lives in the army, but for those who eventually leave there and do what they want to do. Say, this is also an opportunity.”

Ignazio, a special operations pilot of the Air Force for 22 years, is very happy to meet his armed brothers again and pay tribute to those who died in the military.

“Anniversary is for those who have never really left the uniform. Sometimes people will say, “Thank you for your service, but this is not our holiday. “Ignazio said.

Ignazio said he hopes this Memorial Day will heal the racial and political differences that the United States has been trying to overcome.

“You look at the lost fellow soldiers, pilots, sailors, and marines-we don’t think they are what color-that is what you look like in uniform. This is something you can use,” Major Ignazio said
