Video Two: In Remembrance

[lesliemonster]

Good afternoon, everyone. For those of you hailing from different planets, today is a federal holiday in America called Memorial Day.

As Captain Rogers has already aptly mentioned, today we take the time to remember the sacrifices of our men and women in the armed forces. I suspect that is a sentiment that isn't limited to my country or planet alone. Those of you who would like to are welcome to join me on the deck at 7, for a small candle lighting ceremony and a moment of silence.

Thank you for your time.

[Proper Time Lords don't share in the experience of being moved by an emotion. They repress them and try to convince their fellow Time Lords that they barely have feelings but if they did they certainly would never be moved by them and certainly not in public.

Maybe that's why after their civil war ended they just went back to the usual bickering and backstabbing and never really recovered.]

Did you lose anyone in a war, Miss Knope? [Pure curiosity now.]

[That sounds like the Ron Swanson method of coping.]

Not in a war, no. But I work quite a bit with local veterans in Pawnee. I'm thinking about them, today.

Then who or what are you mourning? Why is it meaningful to you?
