At Church one Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex was
staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church.
It was covered with names and small American flags were mounted on either
side of them. The seven year old had been staring at the plaque for some
time, so the Pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said
quietly:
"Good morning, Alex." "Good morning, Pastor,"
replied the boy, still focused on the plaque. "Pastor, what is this?"
"Well, son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the
service."
Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque.
Little Alex's voice was barely audible, trembling with fear, when he asked,
"Which service, the 9:00 or the 10:30?"
