Uncle Sam rode by today just to say thanks for serving. Yes, it's Veteran's Day, a day set aside to remember our nation's veterans who served in war and peace, and especially those who gave their lives for our freedom. Some of us have fond memories of events that took place while serving, yet others are daily reminded of the horrors they faced.
I guess what I find most disturbing is the small group of Americans who fail to understand, or appreciate, the mindset of those who volunteer to make themselves available to defend our freedoms, even to the point of death. They publically petition, protest, complain and even berate our military in the streets, yet it's that very right that we are proudly defending.
I hope you will take the opportunity today to join Uncle Sam and thank an active duty soldier or veteran today for their commitment and service.
