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.

For my Very Good Friend Killed in Afghanistan
The reason i came to this web site is because one of my very good friends was killed in Afghanistan from an IED blast. I will be able to wear the Memorial Bracelet as soon as i get back from Afghanistan in summer of 09. I was very pleased to know that there is a site that is making and selling Memorial Bracelets. When i first saw one, it took me a couple mins to figure out what it was but when i did, i didn't want to ask what happened cause i know how it is to lose someone close. I didn't like to bring up the memories of it, but when i found myself in the same situation of losing a friend while in combat, i realized how he felt. So when i do get back to the states, i will be wearing it every day and i bought 2 so i can put one on my rear view mirror of my car. I would like to say thank you to all the people that have one and are supporting.
