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 and small
American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-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,' he replied,
still focused on the plaque. 'Pastor, what is this? 'The pastor said, 'Well son,
it's a memorial 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 asked,
'Which service the 10:00 or the 11:15?'
