1775, 1812, 1861, 1898, 1917, 1941, 1945, 1956, 1980, 1991, 1998, 2001, 2003
Do these numbers mean anything to you? Well they mean something to us, and they mean something to the thousands of American Soldiers that fought, the American Soldiers that continue to fight and to the families that lost their moms, dads, sons, daughters, wives and husbands.
These numbers represent the dates that America’s bravest, strongest and most honorable men and women traded in their jeans, dresses, sandals and baseball caps for Military fatigues and combat boots.
These are the dates that Our American Heroes answered the call of duty. The dates that these outstanding men and women set out to fulfill their oath to protect our freedom and defend our homeland. These are the dates that our Soldiers said goodbye to their families, some never to return.
As the Holiday Season approaches and you are planning Christmas dinners, hopping from store to store buying up your holiday gifts and sending out invites for family gatherings, I ask you to take a moment and remember those that won’t be so lucky, remember those that won’t smell the aroma of a douglas fir, or see all the twinkling lights through an open window, those that won’t hear the excitement of their children on Christmas morning, those that won’t feel the embrace of a loved one. Remember our Soldiers cause let me tell you,
"They Remember Us"
For just 5 minutes I ask that you forget about Happy Hours, Auto 11’s and Bling. Watch this video. The men and women in it are not just Soldiers, they are our friends, they are men and women we talk to sometimes everyday here on fubar. They are the men and women that make us proud to be an American.
