Presently, there are three variations of the Medal of Honor. Steeped with symbolism, the Medal has become a historic mark of our nation’s bravest. Out of respect for those who have earned it, its appearance has remained largely unaltered in over 150 years. Learn more about the three variations: https://lnkd.in/ewBhjwA6

As I reflect on our celebrations of Memorial Day and D-day, I am so humbled. Countless brave, selfless Americans sacrificed everything to protect our freedoms and the American way of life. I am so thankful. Today our freedoms are not being used to have robust debates to bring about positive change. Instead, they are being used to polarize, divide and tear our nation apart. You are either "for us" or "against us." If you are "against us" then you are the enemy. Instead of tolerance we have mocking, ridicule and outright hatred. Where is tolerance in this? Tolerance does not mean I accept, celebrate and endorse your view point or personal lifestyle choices. Rather, it means I can disagree with your view or choice and still respect you as a person and treat you with the common courtesy and respect that all deserve. Tolerance is a fundamental by-product of individual rights and freedoms, yet it is lacking in today's society. Our brave military sacrificed everything to preserve our way of life. Today we have people who have never served or sacrificed anything for anyone doing everything they can to destroy our way of life. What has happened to our nation? It must break the hearts of our veterans. May we as a nation reflect on this and relearn common courtesy, decency, tolerance for and respect of others. May we use our freedoms to make our communities and nation a better place to live for all, not worse.

"Every year on September 17th our nation is blessed as we honor and celebrate our Constitution and Citizenship Day. On this day we are reminded of the enduring significance of the United States Constitution—a document that has shaped the fabric of our nation since its inception. It is more than just a set of laws; it is the bedrock upon which our country's values, freedoms, and system of governance are built. For over two centuries, the Constitution has guided our nation through times of peace and turmoil, ensuring that the principles of liberty, justice, and equality remain at the heart of the American experience. At Georgia Military College, we believe that the values embodied in the Constitution are synonymous with the values we hold so dear—duty, honor, and love of country—and are not only central to the American identity but also fundamental to the education and development of our students. These values reflect the very core of what we strive to instill in each of them as we develop each into an authentic servant leader. Just as the Constitution has provided a framework for our nation's growth and success, these principles of patriotism guide our journey to contribute to society and lead with integrity."
