On the third Saturday in May, millions of American Patriots, especially those of us who understand the price paid for the Liberty we enjoy, pause to honor those who are securing it for us every day. Armed Forces Day. is an opportunity to express gratitude to the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen serving our nation, active duty, reserve, and guard.
The same is true today as it was in 1776 when John Adams addressed his compatriots. The following are his words: "I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these states. Yet through all the gloom I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory. I can see that the end is worth all the means." As we enjoy this Armed Forces Day, let us be mindful that we should never take for granted the people God places along our path.
