Yesterday was Veterans’ Day and I wanted to take a moment
to offer my thanks to all the Veterans, both those who have served in the past
and those who serve today. I am thankful
for the sacrifices not only they have made and continue to make for our
country, but also the sacrifices of their families. As a former high school U.S. History teacher,
I taught my fair share of lessons on the various wars that occurred throughout
our history, and even those that occurred before there even was a United States,
and I always tried to foster a respect and understanding of those sacrifices to
my students.
So if
you know a veteran, say “Thank you!” If
you see a veteran, say “Thank you!” Be
thankful for our veterans, not just on Veteran’s Day but every day!
