Today is Veteran's Day here in the United States of America. It is a day in which we honor those who have served in defense of our nation.
It seems like Veteran's Day is a holiday that often gets overlooked any more. Other than some government offices, it seems like things just continue as normal. Schools in our area do not take the day off and I don't know of any parades or anything locally that is designed to emphasize this day and I think that this is a shame.
I am thankful for a heritage of men who served, even though I never served myself. I am thankful for my grandfather who served in WWII and my dad who served in Korea and my brother who served in Desert Storm (aka The First Gulf War).
If you are a veteran reading this, thank you for your service. Thank you for your sacrifice.
Following are two tributes that I found online that I thought I would share with you.
Please enjoy and take some time to thank a veteran today and thank God for the freedoms we have here in the good ole U.S.A.
Just my thoughts,
