The final spellbinding minute of Secretary Hegseth’s Memorial Day address will leave you with chills if you listen closely.
Hegseth delivered a powerful vow of remembrance to honor those that paid the ultimate price.
HEGSETH: “Today, with this humble ceremony, we owe at least this, that with every salute, with every ceremony, with every parade, with every prayer, every day, and every year, we remember.”
“That by our remembrance we guard the eternal flame that they lit with the price of their youth.”
“They were Americans from small towns and big cities.”
“And in the words of the Apostle Paul, they stood against the darkness of the world, wearing the breastplate of righteousness.”
“They’ve now gone on to their reward, but we remember them here on this hallowed ground. To them, to those I say, your watch is finished, but the legacy of what you left is eternal.”
“You raced to the breach so that we could walk in freedom and prosperity.”
“May we live lives worthy of their sacrifice and boldly carry forth their fight for freedom, picking up the sword of the spirit and charging forward daily.”
“May Almighty God bless our warriors, and may Almighty God bless our fallen and those they love.”
“Always remember and amen.”
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”
May we always live worthy of their sacrifice, honor their memory, and never forget the brave Americans who paid the ultimate price.
When Memorial Day was first observed on May 30, 1868, its purpose was to honor Union soldiers who had died in the Civil War. After World War I, however, the observance was broadened to include fallen soldiers from all major American wars.
Mat Best - Folded Flag (Official Music Video)
This song was written for the men and women who stepped into the fire for this country and never made it home, and for the families, friends, and brothers left carrying their memory forward.
Memorial Day isn’t just a long weekend. Behind every folded flag is a name, a story, and a sacrifice that built the freedom we live in every day.
