A tribute to fallen HEROES 

from the staff and visitors at FreeRepublic.com, FreedomUSA.org and Veterans for Constitutional Restoration (VetsCoR)

 During the course of this country's history brave men and women have stepped forward from time to time, answering the country's call to fight against would-be tyrants, dictators and despots,  and to defend the individual freedom that is our birthright. 

Many of these brave men and women have paid the ultimate price.

It is to these brave men and women of the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine

that we dedicate this page, and to freedom fighters everywhere and everywhen, in the hope that their sacrifice will not have been in vain. 

---

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

LEST WE FORGET.

With heartfelt thanks to our fallen camrades for their sacrifice.

Thanks for the ping. God Bless all who served, they gave, and they gave, and we enjoy the Freedom their sacrifice provided.

My Tribute:

To my father, who served for 5 years during WWII as a Staff Sergeant, a year of that in Okinawa. He loved this country, he spent part of his life defending it while in the Military and the rest of his life defending it in patriotic spirit. He passed away in 1992 and I still miss him very much. Love you dad, thanks for paving the way.
