I wish I had more time to write on this subject.
Our nation’s foundation and continuing existence is based on the blood, bones and tears our Veterans have shed. Never forget them.
As a veteran, I feel a bond and connection with every veteran that has ever served, irrespective of the branch of service. Many good men and women carry with them pain and pride for the things they have done and witnessed when they were young, so that most of our citizens would not have to.
With deepest sincerity, I say THANK YOU to all of our veterans.
A couple of videos in honor of our veterans(and their families), the last video being in honor of my wonderful friend’s Uncle who paid the ultimate sacrifice in Korea for his “fellas.”

“Dear Madam: I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant-General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be any words of mine but attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering to you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Yours very sincerely and respectfully, Abraham Lincoln.”
God Bless all Veteran’s!! Thank you for your sacrifice and dedication to our beautiful country. We love you always!
To all who served before me, to those with whom I served, and to those who serve today — thank you. Of all of my life’s accomplishments and achievements, I am most proud of having been a Soldier.
Heinlein wrote: “The noblest fate that a man can endure is to place his own mortal body between his loved home and the war’s desolation.” We all forever owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the men and women who have done so.
A Thank You to my husband, J., and all the Veterans out there.
Thank You for our freedom…..
I can’t elaborate more eloquently than what has already been said.
