Let no one dishonor the fallen. Let no one take for granted the sacrifices they have made for us, for our freedoms.
Let no one give an example to our children that they should not respect the sacrifice of the military.
Let no one not support parents and family members whose children and spouses have made the ultimate sacrifice.
At hundreds of funerals for soldiers and veterans over the past 47 years, I have stood by graves as our flag was unfurled and placed on the casket. Every person there stood in silence and respect. Taps was played and people cried - in sorrow for the loss and in thanksgiving for the ultimate sacrifice that was made.
May we never forget.
Let no one raise the charge that these sentiments are partisan.
I/We love our country. I/We cherish our military.
