Every year on this day, we pause to remember Americans fallen by
placing a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns.
The names of the men buried there are known only to God, but their
courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten by our nation.
The soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines we remember today answered
the call of service in their nation's hour of need.
They stood to fight for America's highest ideals.
And when the sun came up this morning the flag flew at half-staff in
solemn gratitude and in deep respect.
To all Servicemen and Women, Veterans, and their loved ones...
From a grateful Nation.
And to those who gave all...
You are never forgotten.
You live, always, in our Hearts.
And our Hearts will go on.
