Today in the US, we honor those who have fallen while serving our country as members of the armed forces. In many cultures, it is believed that we can assist those who have moved on by making offerings that can help their afterlives be a bit more comfortable. While we honor our fallen warriors today, it is important to remember that some of them have no one to remember them, and others have no name at all.

Place five bowls of water and five pieces of bread out as an offering today for the forgotten warriors so they, too, can have a more comfortable afterlife. While you do this, say:

Spirits of forgotten warriors, hear
my voice and know that you are
remembered. Eat of this bread,
drink of this water. May you never
hunger, may you never thirst!

Leave the offering out until tomorrow morning, then dispose of it.
