I’d always wished that my grandfather, a WWII veteran, could have seen this wall in person:
He was still living when I made the trip to D.C. in 2011. If I’d known he’d never make it there on his own, I would have tried to figure out a way to take him myself 
Countless men and women have made great sacrifices for our country’s freedoms – there were many who fought in battles, and many more who took care of families, homes, and jobs while unsure if their loved ones were dead or alive.
It’s so easy to take our freedom for granted, but it has come at an unfathomable price.
Each individual star represents 100 American people who died or remain missing from WWII.
“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13 ESV
