I wanted to post a reminder of a day 15 years ago in the United States of America where no one felt compelled to protest the flag or take a knee during the national anthem.
Not a day goes by where I don't remember the sacrifices made and the lives lost on that day. I lost 343 brothers that day, and every time I put on my uniform I remind myself that this could have been me.... It could have been my family who's lives were left shattered that day..... And for what? Some insane ideology....
There are many athlete millionaires who may take a knee today when our national anthem is played and the flag is displayed. Most of these players where no more than 10 years old when this photo was taken. I hope someone meaningful in their lives shows them this photo and educates them on a different perspective.
