    Happy Veterans Day

    Happy Veterans Day. Thanks to all who served. OBT, if you recognize the female, she is a Duke Med School Grad, who also was featured on the USAA commercial, "I got mine..."

    They were acknowledged and warmly/generously applauded at the game today. Most deservedly. Thank you to all those who serve/d our country in the armed forces.
    [redacted] them and the horses they rode in on.

    Thanks to all our Veterans!

    On this Veterans' Day, I'd like to extend my personal gratitude for all those who have served in the US Armed Forces. Putting service to your country ahead of service to self is, in my opinion, one of the greatest and yet most common acts of patriotism. While I have never worn my country's uniform, it has been my honor and privilege to work alongside many active duty and retired/separated vets, and almost without exception, they represent some of the best people I know.

    Thanks to you all.

    I saw this earlier and was touched about this. The service will render Honor to all veterans at their memorial service. Rich or poor. With an honor guard!
    Thank you so much. I take my veterans status with great , deep pride. Keep to myself, only veterans know this

    Happy Veterans Day
