From a Vet on Veterans Day
Things have changed over the years on how this country celebrates Veterans Day. Now there is a great respect shown to those who served. Definitely a change from the Viet Nam Era! Now many places offer free meals to Veterans on this day. When I think of my service, I feel that the only "thanks" I needed was coming home. There are those who have yet to "come home". They may be back, but they still remain in conflict and need our help "coming home". We lived by the code that none are to be left behind. We need to continue every effort possible to fulfill this call and help those Veterans "come home". Then there are those who never did come home. any "free meal" or thanks that come my way I'd rather be given to the mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and spouses of those who didn't make it home. They are the ones that deserve it. My wife, son, daughter, and all my grandchildren are all the "thanks" I desire and need. God bless those who have yet to "come home" and the families and friends of those lost.http://www.military.com/veterans-day
