Veteran's Day

Today we celebrate those who have served in the military. I want to extend my gratitude to the soldiers and their families. This country may have issues but so does my family and I love them just the same. 

Thank you to our veterans. 

Thank you to our service men and woman, active duty and contract civilians. 

Thank you to those who have died. 

Thank you to those who have suffered. 

Thank you to those who protect, who teach, who build, who guide, who write, who speak, who encourage and who fight. 

Thank you to those in the desert, on the front line, in the air and on the sea. 

Thank you to those behind the desk, on the phone, in the classroom and in the trenches. 

Thank you to those who are scared, who are lonely, who are homesick. 

Thank you to those who are strong, who are driven, who are proud and who put on that uniform. 

Thank you to the oldest man at the veteran center and to the newest recruit going through the ropes.

 Thank you to the wives and husbands who have to stay behind. 

Thank you to the boyfriends, girlfriends, mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters (all family) that live day to day with their loved one serving. 

Thank you to those who have lost dear ones.

 Thank you to the children that live their lives with parents in the service, the kids that move and change and always have to be the new kid.

 Thank you to all those I have not mentioned, my forgetfulness should not reflect on your importance. 

Thank you to our Marines Corps. 

Thank you to our Air Force. 
Thank you to our Army. 
Thank you to our Navy. 
Thank you to our Coast Guard. 

Thank you to our Leaders, our Soldiers, our Military.
