U.S. Air Force Capt. Sarah Juhasz plays “America the Beautiful” on saxophone during the National Gold Star Mother’s and Family’s Day proclamation ceremony in San Antonio, Texas, Sept. 29, 2024. The Gold Star symbol, representing a family member killed in military service, originated during World War I when families with loved ones serving in the military displayed service flags with blue stars, and when a service member was killed, the blue star was replaced by a gold one, symbolizing the ultimate sacrifice.
