"Missing Man Table"
The symbolism of the Missing Man Table:

--The table is round, to show our everlasting concern for our missing men.
--The cloth is white, symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to serve.
--The single red rose; displayed in a vase, reminds us of the lives of these Americans and their loved ones and friends who keep the faith while seeking answers.
--The red ribbon symbolizes our continued determination to account for our missing.
--A slice of lemon reminds us of their bitter fate
--A pinch of salt symbolizes the tears of our missing and their families who long for answers after decades of uncertainty.
--The lighted candle reflects our hope for their return.
--The Bible represents the strength gained through faith to sustain us and those lost from our country, founded as one nation under God.
--The glass is inverted, symbolizing their inability to share a toast.
--The chair is empty, the seat that remains unclaimed at the table.
