Veterans Day 2008

Jump to Comments

veteransday_wktv Today is Veterans Day, and we take time to honor those who have served American or who are serving currently.  Unlike Memorial Day where we remember the dead, today is about honoring those still with us who have served in some capacity or other.

Today as I think of the veterans in our family, I think of our grandfather and his Navy Dental Corps buddies who even last year were working on providing stories for a book on the history of the Navy Dental Corps.  Hopefully, those stories will be published, but so many veteran tales go unwritten.

Thank your service men and women today, and if you get a chance, spend time with one.  Not all of our heroic stories are mentioned in history books, but some waiting to be heard can be found just across the street or even in the person standing next to you.
