11:50 Salute the Troops
(National Purple Heart Day)
The Purple Heart is awarded to those who have been wounded or killed while serving in the U.S. armed forces. This includes wounds received in action against an enemy, or as a result of an attack by a foreign terrorist organization.
Originally established in 1782 by George Washington as the Badge of Military Merit, it was later revived in 1932. It is the oldest U.S. military decoration still in use.
The Purple Heart symbolizes sacrifice, valor, and the recognition of those who have suffered wounds or death in service to their country.
Major James Capers, USMC Retired
Today, Salute the Troops honors Major James Capers, USMC Retired and all those who have been awarded the purple heart. For without their courage in battle, this nation could not, this nation would never have remained free.
