00:02.331 --> 00:03.956
- [Speaker] And so, on this solemn occasion,

00:03.956 --> 00:08.123
against the backdrop of this Bronze Cross Memeorial,

00:08.252 --> 00:12.408
we acknowledge the sacrifice of our service members

00:12.408 --> 00:14.150
and their gold star families.

00:14.150 --> 00:17.633
And we owe, as a nation, a debt of gratitude

00:17.633 --> 00:20.633
for their sacrifice and their lives.

00:23.043 --> 00:24.876
- [Man] Forward march.

00:26.757 --> 00:29.683
^- Every single day, Americans step forward to say

00:29.683 --> 00:31.266
^I'm ready to serve.

00:31.982 --> 00:33.677
^Even though they know they may be asked

00:33.677 --> 00:37.760
^to give the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

00:37.763 --> 00:39.680
(taps)

00:46.842 --> 00:50.372
- Well, when it comes to the pictures on the wall,

00:50.372 --> 00:52.160
you're talking about, not only does

00:52.160 --> 00:56.130
^that soldier, airman or any other service member

00:56.130 --> 00:59.613
^has their story, but their family has their story too.

00:59.613 --> 01:01.262
All they really want is to know

01:01.262 --> 01:03.213
that the community in which we live,

01:03.213 --> 01:06.463
on or off post, remembers their ultimate sacrifice.

01:06.463 --> 01:08.925
We care so much about your loss,

01:08.925 --> 01:10.480
these are the things that we do

01:10.480 --> 01:13.897
to make sure that you know we understand.
