While only one day of the year is dedicated solely to honoring our veterans, Americans must never forget the sacrifices that many of our fellow countrymen have made to defend our country and protect our freedoms.
As America celebrates Memorial Day, we pay tribute to those who have given their lives in our nation's wars.
For those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, we are grateful that such men and women were among us. For those who continue to serve, we honor their commitment. For those who return to civilian life, we honor their service.
The sacrifice of the brave men and women of the military and their families allows us to be safe, and we are grateful.
