They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty nor safety. *
Benjamin Franklin
We have chosen today to be dedicated to the memory of those who died so that we can be free. Our thanks go out to them, and our hearts go out to their families and friends.
We are saddened when our people and government send our brave young men and women into harm’s way, and then, growing weary of the struggle, squander what they sacrificed. We must do our fallen the honor of finishing the fight in our favor, or we must not send them into armed conflict in the first place.
God bless the United States of
America. God bless those who have died
in her service.
