President Trump honors our great patriots on this Memorial Day

Today is the day we remember those, who in great service to our nation, gave up their precious lives for the liberty of the American people, so that we would be a free people – free to live, free to prosper, and most importantly, free to love God with all our hearts.

From the early days of our nation to now, men and women have defended this nation and her Judeo-Christian ideals, both in the homeland and abroad.

I asked Grok to list all the American wars and the number of fallen servicemembers in each:


American Revolutionary War (1775–1783) — ~4,435 battle deaths (total deaths estimated higher, around 25,000 including disease).
Quasi-War (1798–1800) — ~514 total deaths.
War of 1812 (1812–1815) — ~2,260 battle deaths (total ~15,000 including disease).
Indian Wars (approx. 1817–1898) — ~1,000 battle deaths (VA estimate; series of conflicts).
Mexican-American War (1846–1848) — 1,733 battle deaths + 11,550 other (total ~13,283).
American Civil War (1861–1865) — ~655,000 total (Union + Confederate; ~214,938 battle deaths; deadliest U.S. conflict).
Spanish-American War (1898) — ~2,446 total deaths (385 battle).
Philippine-American War (1899–1902) — ~4,196 total deaths.
World War I (U.S. involvement 1917–1918) — 116,516 total (53,402 battle).
World War II (U.S. involvement 1941–1945) — 405,399 total (291,557 battle).
Korean War (1950–1953) — 36,574 total (33,686 battle).
Vietnam War (U.S. major involvement ~1965–1973; 1955–1975) — 58,220 total (47,434 battle).
Gulf War (1990–1991) — 294 total (149 battle).
War in Afghanistan (2001–2021) — ~2,325–2,432 total.
Iraq War (2003–2011) — ~4,492–4,576 total.
Iran War (now) – 13 total.

The last one I added after getting the current figures. So much blood has been spilt for this nation, which we have been so blessed to inherit from our forefathers. Not all of these are deaths from battle, but it doesn’t matter. They were all deaths in service to our nation and we recognize them all and pray for them all, should any of them still need our prayers.

President Trump will at noon participate in a Wreath Laying Ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery and he will deliver remarks in honor of these great patriots. You can watch it below:
