Memorial Day WeekendFreedom is not free, and on Memorial Day weekend we pause to honor the men and women who have lost their lives defending our country. For well over two centuries our red, white, and blue flag has stood proudly, symbolizing our fight for freedom. This week, we honor the heroic men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice to our flag and country and the ideals that it comes with it: liberty, freedom, and our God-given, inalienable rights. We remember those who in great service donned the uniform and valiantly defended the values of our free nation. Though they did not come home, they are not forgotten. We will never forget the heroes who “more than self their country loved.” It is a privilege to humbly honor those who have laid down their lives in the name of freedom. May we never take their sacrifice for granted. "Armed Forces Day is for those still in their uniform; Veterans Day is for those who hung up their uniform; Memorial Day is for those who never made it out of their uniform." -Scott Corsaut |
