On this very special year, the 250th Birthday of our Nation, the 250th Birthday of the United States Army (1175-2025) and 215 years (1812-2026) of the 4th Infantry Regiment's service in the United States Army. Let us not forget all the Patriots and Warriors that have given the ultimate sacrifice in the service of our country. Let us remember their service, their dedication to their fellow Warriors and their love of their families and the Nation they were willing to place themselves in harm's way to secure the freedoms we hold so dearly today.
Let's stand up and offer a salute to these fine men and women, bow our heads in reverence and offer up a prayer. Let us also remember the families of the fallen and their loss that was not in vain but helped strengthen this Nation into the greatest Country in the World. A Country revered and respected around the globe based on the actions of the few men and women willing to travel across the oceans to help free the oppressed at all costs to include their lives.
In a living room or a dining room today, there is an empty seat, a a graduation this month there was an absent parent, brother, sister or other relative that will not know the joy of seeing that loved one walk the stage. Yet in our hearts we know they would be proud of the moment and even more proud to know the live before them has hope because of the sacrifices made.
Warriors, never forget and never wonder if we will. It is because of you we are able to say "Noli Me Tangere" Warriors!
