Veterans Day-Moment of Reflection

Veterans Day-Easy to overlook with the recent weather crisis around the East Coast but let's take a moment to reflect. Reflect on the many service people who have chosen to join the military to fight and support the USA.Many of have not always agreed in principal to our leader's positions on wars over the past 50 years but I hope we all can agree that we owe a debt to the rank and file men and women who place themselves in harms way to help support the American way of freedom and democracy. Let's not forget  the veterans and our need to now provide for them as they age; let's not forget the returning young people who have endured horrible conditions in the Middle East and now need jobs; let's not forget the families that lost breadwinners and have children and financial nooses to deal with; and let's not forget that we are all in this together and need to cooperate and give a little to move our country forward and provide for all.
Here's to the Veterans who we give thanks for your service and dedication.
