Campaign to restore the honor and sanctity of the Fort Bliss nation cemetery.
Objective: We the undersigned have united to confront and reverse the very objectionable and ill conceived “xeriscaping” and use of flat head stones at Fort Bliss national cemetery in El Paso, Texas.
Our strength comes from our unity and the fact that we are the ones that put their lives on the line for our country. We are the families of those who gave their lives for our country.
We are the relatives and friends and just plain concerned citizens that want to able to visit and pray in a real cemetery. A cemetery that once honored its military dead as much as any other national cemetery in the country.
Let’s remember that this is as much for our dead heroes as it is for the living relatives and friends.
“A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers.” – J.F.K
