Today we celebrate the lives of all those warriors who gave their lives for our freedom and our country.

While we celebrate with festive gatherings and celebrations let’s not forget the reason why we celebrate. Let’s also remember that for all of those men and women who are no longer with us there are family and friends who will always mourn them.

So whether you fell in battle or fell later from illness, physical or mental. We will always honor your service and sacrifice to this country.
