The history of Armed Forces Day from US Department of Defense
On August 31, 1949, Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson announced the creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy and Air Force Days. The single-day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under one department -- the Department of Defense. Each of the military leagues and orders was asked to drop sponsorship of its specific service day in order to celebrate the newly announced Armed Forces Day. The Army, Navy and Air Force leagues adopted the newly formed day. The Marine Corps League declined to drop support for Marine Corps Day but supports Armed Forces Day, too.
Help build a memorial to honor the sacrifices of the military men and women we have lost. Honor their lives with the American Fallen Warrior Memorial. Wathc the video to see what you can do to help get this memorial built.
Budweiser changes years-old bottle design for heroes

Budweiser is giving its beer bottles and cans a new, patriotic look for summer, while helping out families of military personnel wounded or killed in action.
For a limited time the King of Beers will be draped in red, white and blue as part of its summer initiative with the Folds of Honor Foundation, which provides post-secondary educational scholarships for families of military personnel killed or disabled while serving. A portion of all sales from May 20 to July 7 -- up to $2.5 million -- will be donated to the organization.
"Our partnership with Folds of Honor is helping to make a difference in the lives of families whose loved ones have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the freedoms we all hold so dear," said Rob McCarthy, vice president of Budweiser at Anheuser-Busch, in a press release.
Last year Budweiser redesigned its cans by emphasizing the sleeker "bowtie" design as a way for Anheuser-Busch to try and boost weak U.S. sales. Budweiser says a the new patriotic look is the first bottle major makeover in many years.
The "Red, White and Blue Summer" will also have special events tied to the NASCAR, the Olympics and Flag Day.
2012 Candlelight Vigil
Taken from the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund Newsletter sent 13 May 2012
This evening, over 20,000 members of the law enforcement family and supporters will once again converge at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, to pay tribute to the fallen heroes and their surviving families.
To help commemorate their service and sacrifice, please join me in doing two things:
- Attend the 24th annual Candlelight Vigil on May 13 in person or via our live webcast; and
- Light a virtual candle in honor of a law enforcement officer.
The Memorial now contains the names of 19,660 fallen law enforcement officers, with 362 officers’ names added this year, 163 from 2011 and 199 from previous years. During the Vigil, their lives will be celebrated, their service commemorated, and they will be forever remembered.
The Candlelight Vigil is a time honored tradition and is the Memorial’s signature event during National Police Week. Please join us in person or attend via our live webcast.
Sincerely,
Craig W. Floyd
Chairman & CEO
P.S. Please be sure to support the Memorial by making a contribution today if you can. We certainly need and greatly appreciate your support.
To all of the mothers out there, Your Patriotism would like to say
You are the inspiration that keeps us all going. You are there when we need you most. You are the one that picks us up when we are down, and lets us cry on your shoulder.
Have a very Happy Mother's Day
The Pledge of Allegiance
The Pledge of Allegiance was written in August 1892 by the socialist minister Francis Bellamy (1855-1931). It was originally published in The Youth's Companion on September 8, 1892. Bellamy had hoped that the pledge would be used by citizens in any country.
