 "Freedom is never  more than one generation away from extinction....It must be fought for,  protected, and handed on to them (future generations) to do the same.”    - Ronald Reagan
 
 The mission of LET FREEDOM RING is to educate  young adults on the meaning and high cost of FREEDOM... to stress the  sacrifices made by young servicemen and women to ensure that we all can  continue to enjoy the freedoms we have. So many of those who have given  their lives for freedom were not much older than the target audience.   Freedom is not free. Today the history of this era is not commonly known  by many younger Americans and others. Too often people take freedom for  granted and never realize that there is always a chance for it to be  taken away.
