In Honor of the Fallen

In honor of the fallen: 

  • 31 lost
  • 31 unwanted visits
  • 31 doors receive that dreaded knock
  • 31 families with shattered hearts
  • 31 pairs of boots lined up with rifles and dog tags and helmets
  • 31 comrades remembered and grieved for 
  • 31 funeral services 
  • 31 names on newly made grave markers
  • 31 empty places at the table
  • 31 souls who gave all, whose lives leave a void, 
  • so take 31 seconds to pray and pay respect.
