Hello? Since When Did Labor Day Become a Day to Salute the Troops? Posted: 03 Sep 2010 09:16 AM PDT Yeah, I get it. Everyday is a day to salute the troops. And I believe that. And I practice that. St. Todd DeCubbville was a troop. My dad was a troop. My brother was a troop. (I was never a troop.) But for some reason, people are turning Labor Day, a day to salute labor… in to Military Labor Day, a day to salute the military… For example: Stonewall Golf Club Celebrates Labor Day by Honoring the Men and Women of the United States Armed Forces. For the fourth consecutive year, Stonewall Golf Club partners with the PGA, USGA and Play Golf America to support our military and their families. A golfing pasture was improved to posh country-club designation by the hard work of labor. So WTF? Where is the support for the working schlub? Just sayin’ – Labor Day is a day to salute Labor, not warriors. Leaves me no choice but to fly my caution flag at half-staff to commemorate our fallen road workers. You might like these too...
