Their sacrifice isn't a whisper; it's a thunderclap. It’s the reason our flag still flies, defiant and proud. To every hero who never came home, to every family forever changed – your valor echoes in the heart of this nation. We remember. We honor. And we stand forever in awe of the warriors who gave their all.
