On May 26th, we will come together as a nation to observe Memorial Day—a solemn day to honor the men and women who gave their lives while serving in our armed forces. These heroes laid down everything for the ideals we hold dear, and their sacrifices deserve our deepest respect, not just on Memorial Day, but every day.
