Memorial Day: We honor those who sacrificed themselves in the defense of liberty

The 42nd Highlanders Pipe and Drum Corps open a tribute to America's fallen defenders from Forest Lawn Cemetery in Hollywood Hills, California. Army Capt. Justin Babcock gives an inspiring tribute to the defenders of freedom.

In this video playlist (advance with lower-center buttons) watch the US Armed Service branch songs performed by the Notre Dame High School marching band, the Blue Eagles Honor Guard, a genuine survivor of the attacks on Pearl Harbor (in which Japan drew the U.S. into World War II) and a real, 12-gun memorial salute.
