Veteran's Day

Bret and I consider ourselves to be patriotic people. Although neither of us are military people many members of our family are. Several of our uncles are Vietnam vets (some came home some didn't), cousins are Iraq veterans, and some of our older great uncles were WWII and Korean war veterans. Many of our friends are military and we see first hand the sacrifices they and their families make during their stays overseas.

We believe that our country is safer because men and women serve in our armed forces. Regardless of your political stance on the wars themselves our feelings towards the men and women who serve should not waiver. So today I say thank you to our veterans, that you will never be forgotten, and that those who have died have not done so in vain. Our country owes you a great debt.
