REBLOG: I could not say it better, read:

Memorial Day ’24

To you, they were a soldier.

To someone else they are:

Father.

Son.

Brother.

Mother.

Daughter.

Sister.

Cousin.

Friend.

Every soldier is a special someone in somebody’s life. When a warrior falls in defense of their homeland and it’s citizens, we sometimes forget that somewhere a mother just lost a son, a wife just lost a husband, or a little girl lost her mommy or daddy.

Nothing can ever fill that void in those people’s lives. Ever.

The very least we can do is take a moment to remember.

For all the fine men and women who gave their lives in conflict, I express my gratitude.

I pray for the day when sacrifices like those are no longer necessary.
