Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston to announce that enslaved people in Texas were free—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. For approximately 250,000 enslaved Texans, freedom was finally enforced and recognized.

As you go through your day, take a moment to reflect on what freedom means, why it matters, and the ongoing pursuit of liberty and equality for all.

Let us reflect on the sacrifices the Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force made so long ago.

Today, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Their courage, dedication, and selfless commitment to duty will never be forgotten. As members of Pershing Rifles, we remember those who gave their lives defending the freedoms we enjoy today and strive to uphold the values they embodied: leadership, honor, discipline, and service.
