Calvin Johnson, Sodexo Health Care Systems President and retired U.S. Army Captain, shares his thoughts on the special meaning of Memorial Day.  In addition to the unofficial start of summer, Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the sacrifices and honor the more than 1 million men and women who have given their lives in military service to our country so we can enjoy the liberty, justice and freedom we have today.
