Veteran’s Day 2008
This Veteran’s Day 2008 has me reflecting. I have been thinking about how many Americans have sacrificed family time to serve our country. I live in an area with a large number of military installations. Every day, I see how much the families of military service members sacrifice as well. I think it is very kind how so many corporations are getting on board to honor these people. National Parks are allowing all military active duty, reserve and veterans in for free. Golden Corral restaurants are giving free meals to vets. President bush spoke at the USS Intrepid. Vice President Cheney laid a wreath at the Tomb on the Unknown Soldier this morning. Arlington National Cemetery is a touching place. The former home of Robert E. Lee has become a symbol of our country’s resolve to be free and democratic.
Thank you to all who serve, who have served and to all those who love those who them.
