Thankful for Day 11

This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it remains the home of the brave  E. Davis

Today is Veteran's Day....a day we pause and give thanks to those willing to serve in our nation's Armed forces.   

I am thankful for the many youth today, who choose to continue the proud tradition of serving in one of our Armed Forces.    It is not an easy decision to make:   as it requires certain strengths and attributes that well, let's face it,we don't associate with the youth of today. 

  Commitment, patience, perseverance, and of course bravery.

I am so thankful that our nation continues to produce young men and women who have this desire to serve our nation!
