She continued: "This photo was taken during a Bob Hope Show at the Naval Base in Norfolk back in the early 80’s I think. But how do you say thank you to those who made the ultimate sacrifice and their families who miss them.

"Well we can start by remembering and honoring the fallen in unity as one nation together on this special day ...sending a message of respect and gratitude," Brinkley noted. "It will never be enough but I hope the families feel the love. #memorialday."
