I love my family! I just wanted to say thank you to all that serve now, have served, the families that support from afar, and all of the people that help to make this country great. I am not at home at the moment so this is the only photo I have of my two guys that served... My dad USAF Ret. and my brother, still in the guard, and also served in the Army.

In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…" From the History of Veterans Day.
This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. ~ Elmer Davis
Thank you, brave men and women, that serve this great nation under God.
