Honoring our Country's Soldiers


Dear Fellow American,
Today, we honor our country's soldiers. Since our nation's beginnings, young men and women have sacrificed their lives in order to pave ours with peace and prosperity. The stories of their courage are a continuous reminder of the American ideals that we've cherished for generations.
Just as those brave men and women fulfilled their sacred duty to their country, we must fulfill our duty to them by never forgetting that our freedom is secured through their sacrifice.
Join me today in a moment of silence to honor those patriots who made the ultimate sacrifice. Heroism like theirs is the foundation our nation was built on, and their sacrifice ensures that America will remain the land of opportunity and freedom for generations to come. We will never forget their sacrifice.
May God bless America and her families.
With the greatest respect,
Senator John Cornyn
