I don't know beans about the each fallen soldiers' religion.
But I know what a memorial is, and it was placed with the *best* of intentions. People can only act based on their own experience, and it is the act of honoring, of remembrance which is important, not the symbols.

And rather than leaving the crosses on the ground as a reminder of how some in this world support the troops, I hope they go back up, as a strong message to the country of how *we* treat the troops.
We are the ones who care. We are the ones, despite the efforts of the non-caring GOP government, who actually take action and make the troops' lives better by fighting for more pay and the health care they need when returning from war.
