#remembertheirsacrifice

There is something immeasurably profound about a military man and woman in uniform, choosing to make the sacrifice - to leave their newborn, to leave their family, to leave their spouse or loved ones behind in order to protect our freedoms and try to ensure freedom for others around the world. It is not perfect. War is ugly. It is raw. But, sadly, in the face of dictators and malevolent rulers who crush their countrymen under foot for the thrill of power and of the extremists who hate our way of life and wish to crush us under the weight of their malignant hatred, it is necessary. Not only to protect others, but to protect this land we call home. Our country asks great things from our service men and women. Sometimes what is asked for is the ultimate sacrifice. On this Memorial Day, and every other, I am proud to honor those who answered that call. I have friends and loved ones serving in the military. I have friends and loved ones who have lost those serving. When a soldier loses their life for the ideals which they hold dear, thinking of the ones back home which they are leaving behind and trying to protect, there should be no protest at their funerals. No slurs hurled at their memory of at their loved ones. No words of ignorance posted. In death there should be no partisanship. There should be a coming together and honoring of their sacrifice...regardless of how you feel about war. It is the honorable thing to do. It is the right thing to do. It is so very sad that for many in America today that Memorial Day is just another day to be off of work and BBQ and drink beer instead of being a day to remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice of their lives so that they can have the right to have BBQ and beer. So while you go about your celebrations today, remember what and WHO this holiday is about... #MemorialDay #MemorialDayWeekend #RememberAndHonor #RememberTheirSacrifice #LestWeForget #Military #America #USA #FreedomIsntFree #Freedom #Sacrifice #Honor #GreaterLove #WeRemember #Remember https://www.instagram.com/p/CPib-WfFV02/?utm_medium=tumblr

I rarely get political on social media. I don't like the fighting it brings. I know where I stand. And I know exactly what I DON'T stand for. I don't need to argue with others who see things differently than me. We are all entitled to our beliefs. But this was beyond the pale! I don't care where you stand politically, but never disrespect those who died for our country and for the freedoms that we still enjoy! This absolutely disgusts me. She is a disgrace to the office which she holds! I would very much like to skip the need for this long weekend, @kamalaharris. This is what emotional voting gets you, people! No mention of the reason why we have this weekend and holiday. The American flag does not wave from the wind, it waves from the breath of the men and women who died fighting for it. Remember them. Tremendous their sacrifice. Honor it always. #MemorialDay #MemorialDayWeekend #RememberAndHonor #RememberTheirSacrifice #LestWeForget #Military #America #USA #FreedomIsntFree #Freedom #Sacrifice #SingleMom #SingleMomLife https://www.instagram.com/p/CPgg9LJlAU-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Thinking of and praying for all the families this Memorial Day Weekend who have lost loved ones while serving our country. Memorial Day Weekend is a time to relax, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy the remaining freedoms that this country still offers. But most importantly it is about remembering and honoring the sacrifices of our brave men and women who never made it home. They made the ultimate sacrifice for a country they loved and wanted to protect. God bless the troops! Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends...John 15:13. We are a family who respects the military, especially those who have given the ultimate sacrifice, and their families. We are thankful for those who serve and sacrifice to keep us free. We honor them every day. "It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God such men lived." –General George S. Patton 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 #MemorialDayWeekend #RememberAndHonor #RememberTheirSacrifice #LestWeForget #Quotestagram #Quotes #RonaldReagan #Military #America #USA #FreedomIsntFree #Freedom #Sacrifice #Honor #GreaterLove #WeRemember #Remember https://www.instagram.com/p/CPdWWu7ldzC/?utm_medium=tumblr
