And, on this day, above all, to the soldier, sailor, airman or Marine who did not make it home to your family, thank you. Thank you for your service, your selflessness, your sacrifice.

Freedom comes at a cost. This Memorial Day, let us remember our fallen heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice and the loved ones who they have left behind. They will never be forgotten.
