🇺🇸 Memorial Day 2026: Honor | Remembrance | Reflection 🇺🇸
🇺🇸 In honor of our fallen military brothers and sisters this Memorial Day… may we never forget the price that was paid for our freedom. 🇺🇸
Memorial Day is more than the unofficial start of summer.
It is more than cookouts, long weekends, sales, and celebrations.
It is a sacred day of remembrance.
Today, we honor the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice while defending our nation and the freedoms we enjoy every single day.
With the constant barrage of Memorial Day weekend advertisements and distractions, it can be easy to lose sight of the true meaning behind this solemn occasion. While there is nothing wrong with enjoying time with family and friends, we must never forget those who never made it home.
They gave everything.
This Memorial Day, take a moment to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness of the heroes who laid down their lives for this great country.
🇺🇸 “Land of the Free Because of the Brave.” 🇺🇸
Whether it’s seeing an American flag waving proudly, visiting a memorial, noticing a military decal on a vehicle, hearing “Taps,” or watching the National Memorial Day Concert, let it remind us that these heroes must never be forgotten.
🔔 FLAG AT HALF-STAFF REMINDER:
In accordance with U.S. Flag Code Section 7(m), the American flag should be displayed at half-staff from sunrise until noon (local time) on Memorial Day.
For flags that cannot be lowered, attaching a black ribbon to the top of the flag is considered an acceptable alternative.
Today, we honor.
Today, we remember.
Today, we reflect.
God bless our fallen heroes, their families, our veterans, active-duty service members, and the United States of America. 🇺🇸
