All gave some, some gave all.

More than 1 million Americans have died in the line of duty to create and defend the incredible country we benefit from daily.

Whether it was the American Revolution, the Civil War, or the Global War on Terror, courageous men and women have been willing to risk their lives to protect the ethos and ideals of our country.

Today we remember these individuals on Memorial Day.

It is the duty of every American to make the most of the opportunity we have been given — pursue life, liberty, and happiness with an enduring persistence.

Those who gave their life for our country would want it no other way.
