Gold Star Mother’s and Family's Day is a reminder to honor those families who bear the lasting weight of their loved one’s sacrifice. In this photo, Alison Malachowski is pictured at the grave of her son, U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sgt James Malachowski, who was killed during his fourth combat deployment in Afghanistan. The courage of our Gold Star Families, and the strength they show, are a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made for our country. As Marines, we hold these families close in our hearts. Semper Fidelis! #GoldStarFamilies #GoldStarMothersDay #NeverForget #HonorAndRemember
