Veterans Day

This is the one day a year when every American stands up and thanks the millions and millions of people who have sacrificed everything they have to defend our country.  Thank you to everyone who has serviced, is serving or will serve, thank you for keeping our country a free and safe place to live.  At school today we had a Veteran's Assembly and a guest speaker.  The speaker told a story about when he had to personally deal with the casualties and families of 7 people on a fallen air craft.  He spoke up about the weeks after the accident, the families and their questions, the hardships of dealing with it, but most of all it was to honor those fallen soldiers who risked their lives to defend us.  It was moving to hear a story from a current member of the military.  Thank you veterans for everything you do.
