Military
2
Dedicated to all men and women wounded in all American wars, the Purple Heart is associated with the Military Order of the Purple Heart and the years 1782 and 1932. Its accompanying words present the stone as red for the blood they shed and the medal as the country's way to show it cares, expressing the hope that if its meaning could be seen by all mankind, peace might come in the speaker's lifetime.
