Hollywood Celebrities Honor Fallen Troops On Memorial Day With Powerful Messages
The Folded Flags of Freedom- Courage, bravery, honor, valor…these are but a few of the timeless tributes used to memorialize the silhouette of the American soldier.
America is great because of the people that founded, fought and continue to fight and die for it. That is why they deserve our highest respect!!!
Celebrities Chris Pratt and John Krasinski are Hollywood actors best known for their roles as Andy Dwyer in Parks and Recreation (Pratt) and Jim Halpert in The Office (Krasinski) got together to honor fallen troops on Memorial Day.
On Monday, the two friends did The Murph Challenge—an epic workout that raises awareness for fallen soldiers.
In a video message on Instagram Monday that has since gone viral Pratt explained: “We just knocked out a Memorial Day Murph workout.” The two actors talk about how they had just finished taking a physical fitness challenge in honor of Michael Murphy, a Navy Seal, “one of the many in uniform who gave his life for our country.”
Pratt added: “It’s days …on a day like today, where we just commemorate all those fallen heroes and we say thanks for all you do to make our dreams come true,”
“1 mile, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air-squats, 1 mile. Do it for time. Check out the challenge and get your shirt at https://www.forged.com/ Thank you to all fallen heroes and their families. Today we remember and honor you,” he continued in the caption next to the post.
