Today we honor the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country. Whether they served in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or National Guard, these courageous individuals put their lives on the line to defend the freedoms we cherish.
While there are countless stories of heroism and sacrifice, we’ve compiled a list of 10 books that pay tribute to these fallen heroes and their families. From real-life accounts of war to fictional tales of military intrigue, these books cover all the bases.
To those who have returned home, we express our gratitude for their service and sacrifice. And to those who have not, we honor their memory and the legacy of their bravery. On this Memorial Day, we humbly salute you.
