Veterans Day of Honor

This is a day on which we celebrate those who serve and have served in our military.  These brave men and women who fight for the rights and liberties of this glorious nation are an important and incredibly special part of our country.  The comprise of about 1,455,000 men and women on active duty and 833,616 on reserve.  This means that this country has the second largest military in the world, second only the People's Republic of China.
This is a time of great unrest in the world with wars, natural disasters, disease, and a new issue that has become more prevalent and that is hate.  There has become a widespread feeling of distrust and ill-feeling for this within our own nation and those who are elsewhere but this horrible feeling must end.  We just had another election and we celebrate the opportunities that we have to vote freely and speak our minds freely.  This is a right that is protected by these phenomenal men and women of the United States Military.  Let us honor them by doing our part to add to the feelings of unity and trust in this country.  Let us stand together lest we fall apart from within.  Happy Veterans Day to all.
