honor our nation’s heroes who lie beneath this sacred earth.
Her steel represents the strength and resolve
of those who defend our great nation.
Her bell represents the liberty and freedom we all enjoy.
And that bell shall be held aloft forever by the five steel pillars rising
from her foundation; just as our five military services,
The Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Coast Guard
Stand as the foundation and protectors of the freedom and liberty
we as Americans enjoy and cherish.
Surely freedom and liberty will always ring true on this
hallowed ground and throughout these United States of America.
