Remember Our Veterans To The Editor:Veterans’ Day is almost upon us and it is time to remember our veterans. We need to remember all those who gave their lives and the many veterans who have lost limbs, hearing and sight. These veterans who served our nation did so with great pride and devotion to duty so that we might have the freedom we enjoy today. We also need to salute our brave men and women who are serving in Afghanistan, Iraq and other parts of the world.
This Veterans’ Day I find myself thinking what it means to be an American. The answer is crystal clear, and that is the pride to live in a country that allows us our personal freedom to express ourselves and to speak our minds. Our system may not be perfect, but it still is the greatest in the world. These freedoms do not come without a price. They come with a great personal sacrifice by those who leave family, friends and jobs to serve the greater good. I hope there will be many flags flying in support of our men and women who have served and are still serving. |
