Today's Moment to Remember
[In 1967, an Act of Congress established the Gold Star lapel pin (left) for issue to immediate Family members of servicemembers killed in combat. The Next of Kin pin (right) signifies a service member death during active duty other than combat.]
Today, the last Sunday of September, is called, by Presidential Proclamation, Gold Star Mother's and Family's Day.
This day honors Gold Star mothers (and families) who lost sons or daughters while serving in the U.S. military. The Gold Star mothers organization was first established by congressional resolution back in 1936. Membership is open to any woman that has lost a son or daughter while on active service in the U.S. military.
Gold Star Mothers and families have inspiring stories of their fallen service member for us all to learn. So, when you meet a Gold Star Mother or family take time to listen them and comfort them because its the least we can do to help ease their pain. And, if you have such opportunity, be a good citizen and, find out how you can help them carry on their fallen service member's legacy.
