INNOCENCE IS PRICELESS

[iddee]

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 8:45 or the 11:00?'
