I personally honor all those who fought in the many past wars. Many sacrifices were made so that we remain free. For example, if we had lost World War II, who knows what Hitler would've done with the nations of this world. Those who fought in that and many other wars knew who they were fighting for. They were fighting for us and our freedom. In a book of scripture from my church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, called the Book of Mormon, a great leader back in 73-72 B.C. wrote something we should all remember. "And it came to pass that he rent his coat; and he took a piece thereof, and wrote upon it--In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children..." (Alma 46:12, The Book of Mormon). These are things that soldiers today and veteran fight and fought for.
Let us remember those who sacrificed and fought for our freedom and liberty...for protection of freedom of religion and protection of our families.
Below is a half-hour video by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. It was something they performed on Veteran's Day in 2012. It includes the song above plus other patriotic ones. If y'all have time, I suggest watching it too.
