๐น Today, on National Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day, we share a truth that military fallen hero families carry every single dayโa truth that many who haven't experienced military life may not fully realize. ๐ข๐๐ฟ ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ผ๐บ ๐ถ๐๐ป'๐ ๐ฎ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐น๐ฒ๐ด๐ฒ; its high price is paid by these families every single day.
โWe first held them as babies. We remember them as children playing in a yard, blowing out candles, taking their first steps. We remember them as the ones we loved.
The reality is nobody was ever killed peacefully in action. Knowing that will rip your heart apart when you think of someone you love and always will.
You may know one or several, but there are thousands of Military Fallen Families. This is a club no one wants to join. But this is where we are. And ๐๐ฒ'๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒโฆ Remember them as ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐น๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ.โ
