This Memorial Day, we remember and honor all who gave their lives in military service.

During World War I, the University of Illinois became one of the first universities in the country selected to train future military aviators through the School of Military Aeronautics. Over 18 months, the program trained 2,691 cadets before concluding following the Armistice in November 1918.

As young servicemen arrived on campus to train, one cadet wrote home in 1917:

“Dear Mamma... I’m going to College again!..am expected at the U of Illinois on Saturday. My chin’s in the clouds, I don’t see anything but the tops of the buildings!”

More than a century later, his words remain a reminder of the lives, hopes, and futures carried by those who served during wartime.

Today, we remember those who never returned home and reflect on the sacrifices made by generations of service members and their families.
