Remembering Veterans and My Daddy

Today is Veteran’s Day and I would like to say thank you to all the Veterans, both living and dead. It is mind boggling to think of all the sacrifices these men and women of our armed forces have made for us. Thanks to all of them, those who died fighting for our freedoms as well as those who survived. To those that never had to go into actual combat, thanks for being willing to do so! As a person who tries to avoid as much conflict as possible, I can’t even fathom what you gave up for our country. So today I salute you all and thank you from the bottom of my heart! Here is a picture of my Dad in his WWII army uniform. He and many of his generation (i.e. my Uncle Harrison Green and my good friend Chester Scott) told me stories that instilled so much respect for our servicemen in my heart. Thanks Daddy!
