WE MUST REMEMBER



I sincerely urge all of us to quietly contemplate the extraordinary and immense sacrifice of our brothers and sisters who DID NOT QUIT and fought to make America a land of liberty, a land of hope, and a land of the brave! WE MUST REMEMBER THEM! They were OUR brothers and OUR sisters. If we as a people truly love and are grateful for our country, and for the blessings of freedom, for the blessing to think and act for ourselves, then it is essential and absolutely imperative that we understand HOW those blessings came to be. We must remember the suffering, the sacrifice, and the pain that was theirs. For us to simply take for granted the immense blessings that are so readily ours without remembering their sacrifice is an awful tragedy.

Let me ask you this question: WOULD THOSE OF US IN COMFORT GIVE HALF AS MUCH FOR THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM IN OUR TIME??

Please listen to the inspiring and moving words of David Mccullough as you watch this short video. It portrays in a small, yet very powerful way the sacrifices of those we must never forget.
