I read a post, Dr. Jill Biden: A Mother’s Gratitude on Veterans Day, that caused me to think. I realized that I don’t really celebrate the meaning of Veterans Day. I intend to change that this year.
I really have no excuse. My father is a (Vietnam) veteran. My brother is an Army man who has served two tours in Iraq. My niece is in the military…and may very well be sent oversees soon if things go as planned. Politics aside, I understand the sacrifices that those who have (and are) serving our country in the military make. Why haven’t I been giving them their rightful due? Oh well, there’s no better time than the present to change.
My Brother, A Future Veteran
Do you do anything special to celebrate Veterans Day?
