Every Mile Tells a Hero’s Tale
Operation Silent Miles stands as a living tribute to those who never returned home. Each mile is for someone— someone who wore the uniform and answered the call. The names on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial were sons, daughters, friends, brothers, sisters, fathers. Every silent mile is a moment to remember them, to carry their memory forward in our hearts.
And just maybe, in these silent miles, they’ll hear: you are not forgotten.
