“On that day let us solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom, and let us re-consecrate ourselves to the task of promoting an enduring peace so that their efforts shall not have been in vain.”
- President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Presidential Proclamation
Honoring all who served
Honoring all who were wounded
Honoring all who gave their lives
You stood in our stead
You stood for our country, for our constitution
You stood for our freedom, for our liberty
You have our gratitude, our respect, our memory
We pledge our service, our advocacy, our work for peace…
Dad ~ 1942
