Since our nation’s inception, more than 1.3 million citizens have made the ultimate sacrifice. They were all Americans. This Memorial Day, we remember them. We remember their families, their loved ones, and their brothers in arms who grapple with loss in many ways. We honor their sacrifice.
The Bible’s words in John 15:13 are fitting: “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
