To all our military veterans who have given their lives in service of this great country, you have my utmost gratitude. Thank you.
Here’s an interesting interview by ABC News with 108-year-old Frank Buckles, the last known living American veteran of World War I. I’m surprised to hear there is no national memorial to the veterans of WWI, and I hope that bill passes soon!
I always get choked up around this holiday. My best friend from college is a Black Hawk Helicopter Pilot and has been over to Iraq 2 times and Afghanistan 1 time and about to go again in a couple months.
I worry and think about him constantly when he is over there. All the people who have died for our saftey is something I think about alot, and I too am very grateful!
Thanks for remembering all those people.
