We hope you have time to enjoy some of our shopping and travel benefits during the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. There’s also great gift savings for Dads and Grads. 
 
Our Cover Story, written by Brig. Gen. (Ret) Raymond E. Bell, Jr. , the father of our Content Director Cythia Bell-Bucha, is the moving story of Sgt. Frank Charrow, a fitting tribute to the 75th anniversary of D-Day, and Memorial Day, 2019. 

As all Veterans know, we do not need help remembering the true meaning of Memorial Day, but we all have a responsibility to make sure future generations never forget. For this nation, the events surrounding June 6, 1944 is a powerful history lesson written by those who made the ultimate sacrifice, so that we might live and enjoy the freedoms we hold so dear. Please pause at 3 pm local time on Memorial Day for a Moment of Remembrance for those families whose servicemembers gave their lives in defense of our freedoms. 

Have a peaceful and restful Memorial Day.

Cover Story: “Black Hawk Down” Comes Back into Perspective Over 30 Years Later

 In the storied annals of military history, there are tales that transcend time, serving as reminders of the indomitable spirit and unwavering courage of those who wear the uniform. One such narrative unfolded in the streets of Mogadishu, Somalia, where Retired U.S. Army Maj. Larry Moores etched his name into the annals of valor, culminating in a long-overdue recognition with the Silver Star Medal.

Cover Story: How & Why WeSalute Was Founded 25 Years Ago

 WeSalute founders Scott and Lin Higgins have spent a lifetime in the military community, from Scott’s combat service in Vietnam and the service of Lin’s father in WWII, to serving families and veterans through the creation of memorials and parades as part of charitable and government initiatives. It was this lifetime of service that led them to establish WeSalute, originally founded as Veterans Advantage, and to continue giving back.
