To those of you that have donned the uniform of the American Military... thank you.
To those of you that have hazarded your life in the service of our freedom ... thank you.
To those of you that have endured - and are enduring -the absence of a family member, friend, husband or wife so they could go away and serve this country ... thank you.
To those of you that are trying to continue on with something of a normal life after being told that loved one is not coming back . . . we remember you today. And say "thank you".
This is a video clip from a recent local Exchange Club meeting, honoring veterans of World War II. I feel such a deep indebtedness to these men.
The thing is, the same spirit that compelled those men and women into military service during WWII, is alive today in the hearts and devotion of our world-class, all volunteer military!
I feel that same sense of indebtedness to the young men and women defending my freedom today in Iraq, Afghanistan and the world over.
Thank you!
