Gratitude for Our Veterans

There are more than 20 million veterans living across the United States. These men and women fought in World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, the Iraq War, the War in Afghanistan, which continues today, and many other wars, operations, interventions, and encounters.¹ Our veterans deserve our gratitude for their service and sacrifice. There are many ways to show appreciation. You can:²

·         Attend a Veteran’s Day event

·         Celebrate family members who have served

·         Fly the United States flag

·         Make a donation to a veteran’s organization

·         Talk with veterans about their service

·         Hand-write and send a card or postcard to a veteran

·         Visit a VA hospital

To all veterans, we offer a heartfelt ‘Thank you!’ Happy Veteran’s Day!!!
