Patriotism Is a Legacy — Not a Trend 🇺🇸🗽

Our fathers didn’t carry flags because it was trendy. They carried them through war zones, through marches, through decades of quiet pride. They didn’t post hashtags — they built towns, started businesses, and saluted every time the anthem played. In today’s world, it’s easy to confuse noise for meaning. But real patriotism doesn’t scream. It stands. It builds. It remembers. It’s in the old photo on the mantle. It’s in the family that stands when the flag is raised. It’s in the man who lowers his hat and puts his hand to his chest — not for show, but for memory. If we want to honor this country, let’s start by honoring the people who carried it before us. Patriotism isn’t something we inherit. It’s something we uphold — or we lose it. #Military #Patriotism #HonorThePast
