A day of recognition for all our veterans and men and women currently serving to keep us all free.

Thanks to everyone for your service and any Family that had the ultimate sacrifice. I only wish people would take more than a few moments and more than just one day a year, to say thanks.
Every time I see a vet, I tell him/her "thank you for your service". Try it.

Same as the fine comments above.
What is scary is we live a quarter mile from an AF base.We looked in the base paper,The Shark,to see about going out for the activities.
The golf course was having a "shotgun scramble" in honor of a day off work.
The yatch club was having a prayer and music from a local band today.
Free to club members,$5 for anyone else.
I hope this is just a budget cutback and not an attitude.
Every year past,you at least got a free hotdog and coffee or soft drink.
The base band played some and the colors passed.
Not too much,but the thought was there.

Salute and thank you to all that served.
Can't thank the Vets enough. God Bless all who served and are serving. God keep those who gave their all. And God watch over all the families and relatives of those serving.
For all vets, for all that protect our freedoms, our library, our way of life, for those who made the ultimate sacrifice, I thank you, my family thanks you. We thank you everyday for being able to do the things some take for granted, being free.
