Serve those above you for they advance you. Serve those below you for they support you. Serve those beside you for they will catch you.
To all those who have served us:
You count among you, men and women from myriad walks of life. Of different thoughts. Of different beliefs. Of different pasts. And of different presents. It is our burden to bear that we could not give you your deserved future. It is only you who understand the unfortunate price that must sometimes be paid.
It is you who have understood best the meaning of liberty, loyalty, community, and service. And for this, you have given your souls. There is little this humble citizen can do but take a moment to honor you, and to understand that it is in your sacrifice that our pride pales. It is in your memory that we must bridge the gaps between us as a people, as a nation, as a race.
Thank you.
