Statement on Memorial Day
To the editor:
On this Memorial Day, Homeward Bound Adirondacks joins in remembering and honoring those members of the armed forces who died in service to our nation. In all conflicts, when called upon to serve, soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines answered that call. Many made the ultimate sacrifice. Some died in combat or later succumbed to their wounds. Others faced difficulties that placed their lives or the quality of their lives in jeopardy once they returned “stateside.” Our thoughts and prayers are with all of them, and their families, today. We are thankful for their service.
