John Locke Foundation President John Hood used the Memorial Day holiday as an opportunity to point National Review Online readers toward important war memorial speeches from Thucydides and Ronald Reagan. Meanwhile, N.C. History Project Director Troy Kickler discussed North Carolina’s role in American wars during a Memorial Day appearance on the WPTF Radio morning show. Snippets of that interview appeared on the radio station’s newscasts throughout the day. One day later, Kickler discussed the American and North Carolina constitutions during an appearance before the Greater Greensboro Republican Women’s Club. (The Greensboro News & Record had included the speech in a calendar of upcoming events.)
