POW  Shall We Never Forget

Table of Honor

 

Notice a small table of honor. This is set for one. This table is our way of symbolizing the fact that members of our profession of arms are missing from our midst.

They are commonly called POWs or MIAs...we call them "Brothers."
They are unable to be with us and so we remember them.

This table set for one is small- Symbolizing the frailty of one prisoner alone against his oppressors.

Remember !

The Tablecloth is white - Symbolizing the purity of their intentions to respond to their country's call to arms.

 Remember !

The single Rose displayed in a vase reminds us of the families and loved ones of our comrades-in-arms who keep the faith awaiting their return.

 Remember !

The Red Ribbon tied so prominently on the vase is reminiscent of the red ribbon worn upon the lapel and breasts of thousands who bear witness to their unyielding determination to demand a proper accounting of our missing.

Remember !

The Candle, the candle is lit - Symbolizing the upward reach of their unconquerable spirit.

Remember !

A Slice of Lemon is on the bread plate to remind us of their bitter fate.

Remember !

There is Salt upon the bread plate - Symbolic of the families tears as they wait.

Remember !

The Glass is inverted - They cannot toast with us.

Remember !

The Chair - The chair is empty. They are not here.

Remember !

Remember ! - All of you who served with them and called them comrades, who depended upon their might and aid, and relied upon them, for surely, they have not forsaken you. Remember !

Remember !

 Until the day they come home, Remember !
