159 years ago, President Abraham Lincoln delivered his immortal "Gettysburg Address" and renewed the effort to reunite a war-torn nation.

@GettysburgNMP helps tell the story and honors the “final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live.”

At the eleventh hour, on the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918, the Western Front fell silent as the Armistice, an end to the fighting in World War One, began. Today, we remember all those who have died in wars and conflict. 📷 - 1 & 3 © Nick Mol 📷 - 2 © IWM Q 69031

Today we honor those who served.
Those who answered our nation’s call.
Those who defended our families, our neighbors and the American way of life.

Their lives ended in places like Pearl Harbor, Vietnam, Iraq, Omaha Beach, Gettysburg, and distant lands many of us will never see. 

Today and everyday we honor and remember those service members who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. #MemorialDay
