BLOG #7 VETERANS DAY Friday Nov. 11th, 2011

    My wife and I live in a retirement community and on Veterans Day we will pause and remember all those Americans that have served in our Armed Forces since 1776, when our great Nation was born. I believe that it is especially fitting that we honor those American Heroes that serve in our Volunteer Military Service today. It matters not what you may believe about our involvement in the two conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. What matters is than our young men and women are over there in harms way.
     To bring your attention to these 21st Century American Heroes I would  like to suggest that you go on U-Tube and bring up a video by Lt. Col. Oliver North entitled:

Oliver North Speaks about Heroes in Iraq. 

      The story at the end of this video about a young Navy Corpsman will speak to the heart and souls of our troops. 

       I also believe that the families and love ones of our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines be remembered in our prayers. Their sacrifice is just as large as those who serve. 

       So, take time on Friday, November 11th, 2011, at the 11th hour to attend some ceremony in your community to honor those who serve us here, safe, at home. I can assure you that your heart will be gladden by your remembrance.
