Moment of Silence for Memorial Day: Monday, May 31st at 12pm PT/3pm ET

They also serve who farm and fish and ranch for a living, who heal and teach and create, who run toward danger when they get the call, every one of these American dreamers and doers and responders, heroes one and all!

Today, as I do every single day, I want to say thanksā€¦

Thank you to those who paved the way for me to put on the uniform of a soldierā€¦

Thank you to those who stood next to me as we fought for the thing we most believe inā€¦

Thank you to those who gave their lives so that I could have one more day to tell my family how much I love themā€¦

Thank you to those who picked up the rifle when my body became too broken to continue the fightā€¦

Thank you to those who stayed behind and kept the candles burning for usā€¦

Thank you to those who gave up their husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters so I could live one more dayā€¦

Thank you to all the heroes of our United States Military, Pastā€¦Presentā€¦and Futureā€¦ for never believing that you are a hero, although you truly are.

With love from a Gold Star Widow,

A respectful thank to all veterans and current military personnel. Your sacrifices are noted and truly appreciated. And also a special thank you to the families of those as well. You sacrifice too and sadly, sometimes, have to come to terms with grief for the fallen that touches you directly. Your service to the country is remembered and honored as well.

Greetings, Citizens of the DC Universe,

In keeping with last yearā€™s newly established tradition, the DC Community will again be taking a moment of silence for Memorial Day this Monday, My 31st, from 12:00pm - 12:05pm PT. This means we will be disabling all ability to create topics or post comments for these five minutes.

We hope you will join us in acknowledging the sacrifices made to create a country of people that, in spite of everything, never stop fighting for a better tomorrow. :us:

This year Iā€™ve had the pleasure to work with a lot of amazing Vietnam Veterans. They arenā€™t always appreciated. But they fought for freedom like any other American would. The average soldier during the war with Vietnam saw 240 days of combat. Yet they served through that hell. These men are amazing people, who knew amazing people. Iā€™m thankful for their service. For all those men who fought and died and were afraid to die and yet fought anyway. And yet you walk up to one and talk to them and they are the nicest and most humble men and women you will ever meet. Thank you to the Service Men and Women who fought for freedom! May you rest In Peace.

I have not been very active on here so I just saw this. It made me so happy and a bit teary to see DC Comics remembering those who fought for our freedom and our families. These brave heroes deserve more than a day a year for remembrance. May God bless America and these saviors.
