You probably remember standing quietly for a couple of minutes every November 11th at 11:00am? Once called Armistice Day, also a national holiday in many countries, commemorates the cessation of most of the hostilities of WW1 on the “eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month”. Now called Veterans Day, many of the same tributes and memorials continue for all past military members as well as our troops at home and abroad today. Serving to protect, they put themselves in harms way to defend our liberty and freedom. They do this everyday, every week, every month, every year, 24/365 with an unwavering commitment to duty. They’ve earned our respect, gratitude and recognition. As the tributes of this years Veterans Day fades away, let’s honor and serve them 24/365 as they do for us.
God Bless America
