Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's legacy extends beyond civil rights to his respect for military service, recognizing its role in pursuing justice and freedom. His vision of equality influenced servicemen and women, blending the fight for civil rights with military dedication.
It's an inspiring time of reflection, discussion, and unity as we pay tribute to Dr. King and those who continue to uphold his legacy through their service to our nation.
We will honor and celebrate the intersection of two vital aspects of American history and culture: the fight for civil rights and the dedication of those who serve in the armed forces to protect our freedoms and values.
