Servicemen and servicewomen all over the world, that have given their last full measure of devotion to their country, deserve to be remembered, and deserve not to be forgotten, especially by their country and their people that requested their service in the first place. This means that either laws must be made or implicit encouragement must be given by this government that through the public air waves of all sorts and types, through the internet, through national and local media, that these devoted men and women, shall be remembered.
In particular, this acknowledgement of service in action, should be done on the most current basis possible, that is to say, as soon as military authorities know for a certainty that a particular soldier has died in combat, and have notified the next of kin of such, than this information shall be disseminated to the appropriate governmental news source for dispersion to news outlets throughout this great nation, and in particular, that it shall be actively encouraged that the names of any and all soldiers so killed, shall be read and/or published, on a timely basis, daily, if appropriate, as a public announcement, deserving of the attention of the people of this nation.
This would indicate that for newspapers, for example, that within an appropriate area of such a newspaper, such as within the obituaries, that the listing of servicemen and servicewoman that have died in combat shall be listed. So too, for television and radio news organizations, as a requirement by the Federal Communications Commission, a public service announcement in regards to war dead, shall be disbursed throughout this nation, as a courtesy and as a show of respect to these devoted soldiers.
Additionally, each Memorial day, it should be highly recommended and encouraged by this national government, that at places of eternal rest, the names of those that have died in service to their country over the last running twelve months, shall be read to the public, as a show of respect and of honor to our dearly departed. We owe this hallowed roll call to those that gave all, on behalf of this great nation.
It is important to remember and never to forget those that have died on behalf of their nation, because when wars are being fought overseas, there is a tendency for the population, to be ignorant or somewhat forgetful of the fact that real men and real women, typically young in age, have died in the service of their nation, and that we, the living, have an inherent obligation, to make sure that their deaths have not been in vain, by resolving to do what we can to honor freedom, virtue, sacrifice, and courage, for these are the very things that make this country great.
It is vital to see war for what it really is, for war is always that inconvenient truth, that when mankind will not get along with each other, when mankind will not listen to reason, when mankind attempts to wrest away something that isn't theirs, when mankind refuses to compromise, and when mankind insists that the battleground is the only appropriate place to resolve disputes, than soldiers will die, good soldiers, and may we the living do our best to see that their deaths have not been for naught.
