Thank you to those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom.

I just hope it won't be forgotten due to our country's disaster of a president.

There have been millions of Americans killed because of wars.
Today, we should remember them all: those who died in defense of freedom, those who died following some idiot's orders, and those who died as "collateral damage".
We must remember the many, many lives lost fighting wars that had virtually nothing at all to do with our freedom - and we should forever be vigilant to prevent more of the same.
