"Let us give thanks for the many blessings we have received. Let us give thanks for the freedoms we enjoy and experience every day. However, let us also remember the great price that has been paid for that freedom.
We knew them. They lived, they felt, they were as vibrant, as energetic, as immortal as you and I. They were brave. They fell for peace and for freedom in the service of their country. Many may argue about the futility of death and of war, but one should never forget that they died, not in vain, but in honor.
Many times through the years our country has called, and many men and women have answered the call. Let us not forget our fallen comrades, but remember them always, for they have earned our respect and admiration with their lives.We knew them, we remember them, and they will not be forgotten. To our fallen comrades!"
