I am a Veteran! A Veteran is someone, who at one point in their life, wrote a blank check payable to the United States of America for an amount up to, and including, their life. Regardless of personal political views, that is an Honor and there are way too many people in this country who no longer remember that fact.

Let me say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to all veterans, past, present, and future. No matter what branch you served in, no matter what your political views may be, every one of you has voluntarily put your life on the line to keep this nation free.

You have fought for our freedom, so that we didn't have to. You have spoken for those who have no voice. You have defended the rights of all, even those who would use them to mock you. And you have stood up to those who would bring this great nation to her knees.   

To all who have sacrificed in service to their country, thank you, you are not forgotten.
