U.S. Army Master Sgt. Celestine Jackson, Pacific Health Command senior career counselor, participates in the Fisher House Hero and Remembrance Run, Walk or Roll event held at Ford Island to honor fallen service members Sept. 5, 2015, at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii. “My first year coming here it was an opportunity for me to pay homage to those soldiers who paved the way for us and who paid the ultimate sacrifice," Jackson said. "The first year when we were putting the pictures on the boots, at about the 30th boot in, I got to a personal friend's boot and it was just so overwhelmingly emotional for me. I said, ‘So if I can do this, think about how the family of that fallen hero feels,’ so that’s what brings me back every year. If I’m so touched by it, I know that those families would be even more touched.” (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Christopher Hubenthal)
