Why Adopt our Heroes ?

  • For most Americans, Memorial Day is hardly more than a day off for the first weekend of summer
  • Attendance at National Cemeteries across the US is embarrassingly low
  • Children are not effectively being taught the importance of Memorial Day nor the difference between Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day
  • Veteran’s Day is hardly observed or celebrated
  • Counterpoint - Margraten, Netherlands
