Veterans Day

Today is the day set aside to honor those valiant men and women who served our country in war and in peace - our veterans. So won't you take a moment today to find someone who served and take them out to lunch or in some other way just thank them for the freedoms that their service has given us today.

"It's the Soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.

It's the Soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.

It's the Soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us freedom to demonstrate.

It's the Soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trail.

And it's the Soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag, that allows the protester to burn the flag"
