For those who don't know, tomorrow is National EOD Day. It is the first Saturday of each May.
We remember our fallen, celebrate their lives, and remember the good and the bad times.
In Fort Walton Beach, (Eglin AFB) Florida, home to NAVSCOLEOD, we do this as a community every year. Those of us who can't be there try to toast our Heroes however we can.

Take a moment on Saturday to thank our fallen Brothers and Sisters for their sacrifice.
We Remember!

Cpl Scott McCarroll - Thank you. It's a happy and sad day. We remember the friends that we lost in combat and in the line of duty. I have 6 good friend's names tattooed on my arm that I miss every day.
I'm glad to have you as a friend as well. I hope y'all have a good weekend as well!
