Inscription.
As you gaze out over the Field of Heroes Flag Display, realize that each flag represents a father or mother, brother or sister, son or daughter who gave their life in the Global War on Terrorism to protect our freedom and keep us safe

Over 7000 of our fellow Americans made the ultimate sacrifice. Honor their sacrifice by becoming involved in the American tradition of self government. As President John F. Kennedy said, "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country."
