Freedom is not free.
If we don't remember, who will?

"For those who fight for it, freedom has a special flavor that the protected will never know." - On the back of a C Ration box at Khe Sanh, RVN.

"Dying doesn't really bother me. What does bother me is if no one remembers." - Tom Hanks' character in Saving Private Ryan

"Nobody likes to fight but somebody has to know how."
- Anonymous

"War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things. The ugliest is that man who thinks nothing is worth fighting and dying for and lets men better and braver than himself protect him."
- John Stuart Mill
