“Keep moving forward.”
That was the last command Capt. Joshua Byers ever gave after an IED struck his vehicle in Iraq. Josh didn’t make it home, but his words saved lives and became a battle cry for his unit. Today, his story represents why our year-long mission is so vital.
Michael Barbour, Capt. Byer’s sacrifice – like those of countless other fallen heroes – must never be forgotten. Yet there is a growing disconnect between younger generations and the profound sacrifices of our service members and veterans. His powerful last command reminds us why we must act now.
We must ensure our children understand and learn from heroes like Joshua who gave everything so others could live free. His story teaches us about unwavering leadership, sacrifice, and dedication to fellow service members – values that future generations need to learn and embrace.
Here at Wreaths Across America, we are committed to doing just that. Through our year-round mission to Remember, Honor and Teach, our efforts focus on showing our nation’s veterans that their service mattered. We do this by sharing their stories on Wreaths Across America Radio. Welcoming Home our Vietnam veterans in communities across the country on the Mobile Education Exhibit. In helping Veteran Service Organizations raise awareness and funding through our Group Sponsorship program.
And maybe most important, we honor our nation’s veterans by teaching the next generation the value of freedom and what it means to serve. Through our TEACH program we offer the free resources for anyone wanting to help the youth of their community learn.
We hope you will find a way to join us in this yearlong mission. But no matter what, remember to “Keep moving forward.” |
