Today, we pause to honor the incredible courage and sacrifice of the Allied forces who landed on the beaches of Normandy 82 years ago today. Their bravery turned the tide of history and secured the freedoms we enjoy today. We will never forget. 🇫🇷🇺🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧

🇺🇸 With Memorial Day approaching, we are reminded that each fold of a flag holds meaning. The final fold however, the one right before the flag is cradled and handed to a grieving family, says what words cannot. We pause in silence for the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We honor their memory, their families, and the weight of every fold that tells their story. We will never forget.

A Veterans Day Poem
By Cheryl Dyson

On Veterans Day we honor all
Who answered to a service call.
Soldiers young and soldiers old,
Fought for freedom, brave and bold.
Some have lived, while others died,
And all of them deserve our pride.
We're proud of all the soldiers who
Kept thinking of red, white, and blue.
