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 8:30 or the 10:00 ?'
