Honor. Memory. Mission: Zero.
On December 7, 1941, a quiet Sunday morning turned into a day of unimaginable loss at Pearl Harbor. 🇺🇸
Today, we remember:
• The 2,400+ lives lost
• The Service Members who ran toward danger
• The families whose lives were changed forever
Many who survived Pearl Harbor and World War II came home with wounds that couldn’t be seen, carrying memories, grief, and trauma that followed them long after the war ended.
Pearl Harbor is not just history. It is a powerful reminder that:
•Trauma doesn’t always show on the outside.
•Courage doesn’t always look like a uniform; sometimes it looks like asking for help.
•Our responsibility to one another did not end when the guns went silent.
On this day of remembrance, we recommit to Mission Zero: no Service Member, Veteran, or military family member should feel like they have to fight their battles alone.
If you are struggling with memories, grief, or the weight of it all, your story is not over.
Reaching out is not weakness. It is another act of service, to yourself and the people who love you.
📞 If you or someone you know needs support:
•988, then press 1 – Veterans Crisis Line (call or text)
•Chat: 988lifeline.org
•Reach out to a battle buddy, spouse, family member, chaplain, or provider you trust.
Today we say:
We remember the fallen.
We stand with the living.
We fight for tomorrow.
🕯️ In honor of Pearl Harbor, check on a Veteran or military family today. A simple “How are you really doing?” can be life-saving.
