Readers Share Their Stories
After more than a decade at war, chances are someone you knew, perhaps someone you loved, has given their life in military service to this country. But they aren't gone, not entirely. You have memories to call upon to bring them back to you, and you have physical objects that are a constant reminder of your fallen servicemember. Maybe a set of dog tags, an old T-shirt, a pickup truck or a tattoo.
To mark Memorial Day, Stars and Stripes wants to hear about your mementos and the people and stories that will forever be linked to them. Tell us your story and share photos of the fallen servicemember and the objects that keep their memory alive.
