    Veterans render their respects to the American flag during the National Anthem at the Memorial Day ceremony in the New Bern National Cemetery May 30. Hundreds of people attended the ceremony in remembrance of American service members who fought in past and current wars. According to Rusty Clark, a corporal in the North Carolina National Guard and a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Memorial Day is not about barbecues, taking the day off work, or not going to school. It’s about taking time to remember the sacrifices of our troops.
