Courage, commitment, resilience. This video reminds us that our freedom comes at price, and each year we set aside this day to honor the sacrifice necessary to secure that freedom.

Who crafted this solemn piece? How did it end up in this isolated field?

From soldiers deployed overseas to families in the backyard, Americans everywhere take time to honor our fallen veterans.

On behalf of What You Can Do and The Veterans Site, we want to say thank you to every member of the military for their service and dedication to our country. Thank you for your bravery, service, and commitment to protecting our freedoms. This Memorial Day, don't forget to thank your veteran for all that they have done. Remember to do your part to help homeless and hungry veterans by clicking daily at The Veterans Site.

On June 6, 1944, Allied forces orchestrated the largest water-to-land invasion in history, famously known as D-Day. The operation was ultimately successful in regaining control of Normandy's coast from the Axis powers, but resulted in the loss of many soldiers on both sides. This June, for the seventy-year anniversary of the tide-turning invasion, France will honor the surviving D-Day veterans with a two-month commemoration of the Battle of Normandy.

When soldiers come together and support one another, the result is beautiful.

While the crowd gathered at the starting line, a 95-year-old vet donned his WWII uniform and took a seat on his front lawn to applaud the passing runners. Each year the 408K Race to the Row raises funds for the Pat Tillman Foundation, so Joe Bell wanted to show his appreciation, but he was the one in for a surprise.

We need to remember the sacrifices that are being made on the home front.

The book tells a harrowing tale of one man’s struggle against insurmountable odds.
