Dear Robert,
Memorial Day is sacred for veterans like you and me because we know what sacrifice means. Many of us know men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for America.
You'll recall Robert Sherman, a fellow veteran from this month's DAV newsletter. Here's how he spoke about the need to remember…
"It's something that veterans take very seriously. And sometimes you just wonder if people recognize it because they just carry on with their daily lives, business as usual."
And it's true, Robert. For too many, Memorial Day just means barbecues and blowout sales. They've forgotten the gravity of this holiday.
That's one reason why your membership in DAV is crucial. No one can ever repay the sacrifice of those who fell in our country's service, but…
Through DAV, you salute our honored dead as you help fellow veterans who served at their sides.
And that's what your membership in DAV is all about, on Memorial Day and all year long!
Today, I'm counting on you, Robert. Please help me honor our fallen as you attend local Memorial Day events and fly your American flag.
And thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your DAV membership.
Honoring Sacrifice this Memorial Day,
Bobby Barrera
