The bald eagle became a symbol of the United States in 1782.
Since then, generations of Americans have defended the freedoms represented by that symbol.
This Memorial Day, we honor the service members who gave their lives for our country and remember the freedoms that allow Americans to experience and share our public lands and wildlife.
As our nation approaches the Freedom 250 milestone, we remember that freedom has always carried a cost.
