Watch: Memorial Day Tribute to Carl Edwards Jr., His Girlfriend and Chipotle

Today is Memorial Day, a time to come together to remember those who have given their lives in service of our country. It’s known to many as the unofficial start of summer, but it’s a very real, somber reminder of the sacrifice so many families have made to defend the United States of America and protect our freedom.

Nette Smith is most well known as the girlfriend of Carl Edwards, Jr. and the mother of the their beautiful daughter. She’s also a member of the United States Army. CSN Chicago ran a great piece on Nette and we wanted to share that with you in honor of Memorial Day. Enjoy.
