THANK YOU Veterans

Happy Veteran's Day!

A simple Thank You for your Service to Our Country is the best thing that anyone can say to a veteran.  At an early morning school assembly, one veteran spoke about the importance of just saying Thank You.  I believe that many Americans do NOT take for granted the sacrifice and service of many in our armed forces.  I believe that many Americans are ignorant of the valor, courage, strength and fortitude of folks who serve and have served in our armed forces.  Tis better to do what is right and endure the slander from those ignorant of what it takes to excel for the common good.  Celebrate as we all should the wonderful freedoms we enjoy today.  This is truly a day of thanks for our Veteran's.

On Wives of Faith, Pattie Reitz posts a neat history clip as well as an appropriate poem.  WofF Veteran's Day
