Here at FirstFleet, we are thankful to all of the men and women who have fought for the honor of our nation. This Memorial Day, let us stop and remember those soldiers who died fighting for both our nation and the rights and freedoms that we hold dear.
Memorial Day is a special day to honor those that never made it home. The brave men and women who have died fighting for our country and the freedoms we enjoy are deserving of special honor because they paid the ultimate sacrifice in securing them. But great sacrifice also costs everything to those who love them best. And so let us also remember all the loved ones that our soldiers fought and died for on this Memorial Day.
Join us in taking a minute to pause and remember our soldiers this Monday. Many around our nation will place flowers and flags on the graves of those who died fighting our country’s battles. Our call as a nation is to not forget their sacrifice. So let us join H.W. Longfellow in saying, “Yours has the suffering been, The memory shall be ours.”
