Thank a Veteran today and every day.
These men and women are the people that I have been inspired by countless times since my first pen-pal during the Gulf War. They are generations come and gone, ones I will never know.
And they are family and friends whom I love dearly.
To each of them, and their loved ones who share them with us, I thank you.
Thank you,
for the sleepless nights.
for sacrificing time with your family.
for your giving nature to help those in need.
for the missed holidays at home.
for the sacrifice of everyday comfort.
for risking your wellbeing for me.
for rising to the challenge of recovering.
for honoring your fallen brothers and sisters.
for having faith in a cause larger than yourself.
for knowing that every individual matters.
for being a role model worthy of admiration.
I thank you today and everyday.
