Freedom is not free. Today is the day we remember and honor those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, and given their lives for the sake of our country and all of us who live here. Furthermore, today we must also remember those who are currently serving overseas in a war zone, because every day they face the risk of injury or loss of life. Every day is a day they are away from their families, loved ones and the comforts of home that we all take for granted.
