On this day, we honor and remember the brave servicemen & women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We take a moment to remember the profound courage and selflessness of these extraordinary men and women. We want to express our deepest gratitude to those who laid down their lives to protect the freedoms we hold dear, for their unwavering commitment to defending our nation.
We would like to conclude with a passage from one of the greatest Presidents in US History and an address he made in a small town called Gettysburg, PA.
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
– Abraham Lincoln, 1863 Gettysburg Address
