“Today, we remember America’s bravest – those who served our country with immeasurable devotion, paying the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. Let our nation’s flag stand as a humble reminder of those service members who were unable to return home to their loved ones so that we may enjoy the freedoms that make our country the greatest on this Earth. As a nation, we recommit ourselves to those service members and their families. Together, we stand in solidarity, vowing to make every effort to bring home the men and women in uniform that we hold dear in our hearts. Let us remember to honor, and never forget, the brave sacrifices they have made.”
