My personal musings about anything that gets on my radar screen--heavily dominated by politics.

On Veteran's Day

Now, Therefore, I, Dwight D. Eisenhower, President of the United States of America , do hereby call upon all of our citizens to observe Thursday, November 11, 1954 , as Veterans Day. On that day let us solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom, and let us reconsecrate ourselves to the task of promoting an enduring peace so that their efforts shall not have been in vain.

Hear, hear.

Thank you, Dad; thank you, John; thank you, Jeff; and to my many uncles and grandfathers who wore the uniform in their time, thank you, as well.
