This is a time to remember our military today, past, and those who have died in service to our country.

Join us tomorrow, May 20, to celebrate Armed Forces Day and recognize servicemembers, both past and present, in all six branches of the US military: the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Air Force, and Space Force.

And with Memorial Day weekend coming up next week, we remember over 1.1 million Americans who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedoms and preservation of our liberties.

As our nation does each year, you can do your part. At 3 pm local time on Monday, May 29, please pause for one minute during our National Moment of Remembrance, we honor those before us who have perished.
