The Service of Veterans

They are mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers. They are my neighbors, co-workers and friends. They are defenders, keepers and others. They inspire the writings of many a pen. All are gallant, determined, and disciplined. All have sacrificed much for our gain. All are my family and blood and one. All honor belongs to their name. Give a salute for their sacrifice given, Give them a “thank you” for caring. Give each respect and admiration Give regard for the wounds some are bearing.
