God Bless Our Veterans

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things.
The decayed and degraded state of moral and
patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is
much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is
willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his
own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has
no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the
exertions of better men than himself.
— John Stuart Mill (1868)

Today we honor those heroes who have sacrificed so much for this nation. And their families. Those, who have followed their hearts and given all in their belief that freedom, honor and liberty MATTER.

To our Veterans I say, Thank You. As inadequate as that is....it is said with heartfelt gratitude and awe for all you've done and all you continue to do.

My prayer is that we as a nation and individuals can do YOU and your families proud.
