I recently ordered a K.I.A. Memorial Bracelet. I wanted one for the obvious reason of remembering those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and our citizens. Additionally, I am currently a Marine Officer Candidate; in selecting the name of the fallen Marine on the bracelet that I will wear, I chose a young PFC from Pennsylvania who was killed in action in Afghanistan. He was 19. This bracelet will remind me that as a future officer, my responsibility is to the young Marines I will have the privilege of leading, to achieve our mission, and to bring them home safely.Very respectfully,Cadet 2nd Classman PeterMaster SergeantVirginia Military Institute
In the 1970's, we wore Prisoner of War (P.O.W.) bracelets. Today, we also keep others in our memories; Victims of Terrorism and Military Casualties. To keep the memory alive of those who have died at the hands of terrorists or fighting terrorism, we now also wear Memorial Bracelets. People from all over the country are wearing bracelets from Memorial Bracelets located at www.memorialbracelets.com for their own very personal reasons. Below are some of the stories that we have received.
