America’s veterans – our coworkers, our neighbors, our friends and family members – have endured the pain of separation from loved ones, the trials of repeated deployments, the harsh realities of combat, and in some cases the ultimate sacrifice. It’s our duty as citizens to provide these men and women and their families with the support, respect, and compassion they deserve. They stand as shining examples of the principles that make us proud to be American’s.
With our nation heavily involved in combat activities and international service to others abroad, my thoughts go out to those men and women in uniform who are currently on duty here at home, on watch at sea and on post across the globe.
Thank you Veterans, past, present and future. For without you we would not enjoy the many priveleges and freedoms we do including one of our favorites, IDO!
