    Sup Brawlers,

    Memorial day is coming up in the United States of America, it lands on Monday, and this is a great time to honor those who have fought for our great country.

    I did my best to create our flag. I wanted to do something to remember all the military men and women who have sacrificed so much for our great country. Below is a flag, for those of you who have Optifine. While wearing our flag remember who you represent and why. Let's do our part to support all those veterans.

    Here is an Optifine template for our Stars and Stripes to wear through the memorial day weekend: http://www.needcoolshoes.com/banner?=pabBmD

    If you don't have a cape, you can also support our troops by changing your picture to a US flag.




    Here are the number of casualties in each U.S. war: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/05/22/historical-facts-memorial-day/27817017/

    Civil War: Approximately 620,000 Americans died. The Union lost almost 365,000 troops and the Confederacy about 260,000. More than half of these deaths were caused by disease.

    World War I: 116,516 Americans died, more than half from disease.

    World War II: 405,399 Americans died.

    Korean War: 36,574 Americans died.

    Vietnam Conflict: 58,220 Americans died. More than 47,000 Americans were killed in action and nearly 11,000 died of other causes.

    Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm: 148 U.S. battle deaths and 145 non-battle deaths.

    Operation Iraqi Freedom: 4,422 U.S. service members died.

    Operation New Dawn: 66 U.S. service members died.

    Operation Enduring Freedom: 2,318 U.S. service members have died as of May 12, 2014.

    It annoys me how you interfere with a war on the other side of the planet, a war that didn't affect you at all before you interfered.

    OptiFine shouldn't be supporting this.

    Was there ever a point other than "Memorial day is coming up in the United States of America, it lands on Monday, and this is a great time to honor those who have fought for our great country."

    Y'ever wonder why people choose to honour military members who are dead instead of trying to save those who are still alive?

    I mean, as much as I respect those who died in service, I despise the mindset of the people who sent them to die in the first place. You've now officially had more people die in the military than you have had die in all terrorist attacks involving US citizens combined, over less time.

    So yes, respect the dead, but don't think America is great because they died. It's not your great country you're honouring, it's those who died attacking others in its name.
