Today is the day we remember those who have fallen in the service of this country. People who are my battle brothers and sisters, who joined and died. From the Concord Green to the streets of Baghdad, the blood that feeds the tree of Liberty is always necessary and precious.
Places like Bunker Hill. Cold Harbor. Bastogne. Guadalcanal. Chosin Reservoir. Hue City. Tora Bora. Fallujah. Speak these names with reverence and awe.
And when you place a flag on the grave of a fallen soldier, please remember those who died at sea, for that is their grave.
When you give remembrance at a parade or cookout, please remember to salute the flag and thank a veteran for their service.
All gave some. Some gave all. Some are still giving. POW-MIA.
