this Memorial Day weekend is the 56th anniversary of Charlotte Motor Speedway's annual tribute that brings together more than 110,000 guests to celebrate our military patriots and reflect on their service and sacrifice. This event has remained one of the largest military recognition initiatives on Memorial Day weekend for more than five decades, honoring members of our armed services, veterans, Medal of Honor recipients, and remembering our fallen. This year's celebration continues their longstanding tribute by showcasing military aircraft in a patriotic flyover, infantry and artillery exhibits, ground demonstrations of our Nation's military strength, and a 21-gun salute to our fallen. Our servicemembers courageously stand between America and those who would do us harm, volunteering to make the ultimate sacrifice to preserve freedom. I commend all of those in the racing community for their continued support and annual tribute to our men and women in uniform. ____________________
