The 75th Anniversary of the end of World War II is an opportunity for us to reflect on the service and sacrifice of the millions of brave service members who fought in the Pacific Theater. We cannot forget the sacrifices made by these brave men and women, for to forget them is to dishonor the actions taken to defend our inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
