One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex
standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a
large plaque. It was covered with names with small
American flags mounted on either side of it.
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, what is this?' he asked the
pastor.
The pastor said, 'Well, son, it's a memorial plaque to
all the young men and women who died in the Service.'
Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the
large plaque.
Finally, little Alex's voice, barely audible and
trembling with fear, he asked, 'Which service, the
8:30 or the 10:45?'
