Today we celebrate our Veterans! I recall as a child helping my father fly our flag each Veteran's Day. I learned about our country, my family heritage, and about the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month 1918, when WWI ended with the Armistice signing. Today we have military members fighting two wars, we have veterans of those and other wars struggling with health issues, finding jobs, and moving forward with their lives. Other than my vote, and voicing my support for our veterans to my senate, and Congress members, there is not much I can do. However, I always fly my flag on special days for our nation. Today I continue a tradition my father taught me and I am flying my flag. In honor of the service all our Veterans and military members. But Especially for the members of my family who have served from the Revolution to current day. I say THANK YOU!
Specifically to James, Branden, Chantal, Charles, George, my father,Thank you.
Also on this day I remember those service members who suffered because of Don't Ask Don't Tell and the policy that was before it. I celebrate the removal of that barrier.
Enjoy your lifestyle? Freedom? Vote? Thank a Vet!
