Serving in the military and giving one’s life for one’s country is the ultimate sacrifice. Since the United States of America was founded in 1776, well over 1 million Americans have lost their lives in the nation’s wars and ongoing conflicts. This country does not fail to recognize and honor those who have lost their lives, but unfortunately for their families that are left behind, they have to live with their memories but without their treasured sons, daughters, brother, sisters, fathers, or mothers.
Since 2016, the Atlanta Falcons have partnered with Tragedy Assistance for Survivors (TAPS) to not only preserve the memories of the fallen heroes, but also to continuously remind those families that their sacrifices have not and will not be forgotten.
