It's more than cookouts and a free day off.
It's a moment to remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice in the name of our country.
We've lost too many Americans to a war-on-terror that I don't fully understand.
On this day, I offer my sincere thanks to those who paid the ultimate price.
As a military spouse, I suppose I think about the reality of a combat death more than the average American.
I hope that ALL Americans take a moment today to remember those who were brave enough to risk their lives for our freedoms.
Fallen servicemembers, you are not forgotten. You live on in the hearts of family and friends, and people (like) me who you never met. People like me who are grateful for your brave service and your commitment to duty.
I remember you this day and give thanks for your life.
Sleep well, fallen servicemembers. Your duty is complete.
