Memorial Day is when we remember those who gave their lives defending our nation. In today’s Fondue Writer’s Club Memorial Day free fiction, Joe Shaw shows us a man who remembers those who paid the price, and keeps asking why he made it out.

Oh, and there is also Led Zeppelin.

So you’ll want to read today’s story, ‘The Kid’ for sure. And take note we didn’t leave you story-less on the weekends because writers ARE ALWAYS WORKING!

There are a couple of strong language words, which is unusual for the Fondue, but that is how Shaw rolls. He lives in Florida, you see, and that is probably enough to make anyone swear. I just wanted you to one warned.
