Veterans' Day
There isn't enough that can be said or did to show the gratitude our soldiers, past and present, deserve. Vererans' Day is a day we should all stop and not just thank a Veteran for their sacrifice, but truely think about what it means offer your life for your country.
I would like to personally thank 2 men for their service. My Grandfather Samuel, who served in World War II, and my father Dennis, who served in Vietnam. 2 men who's love for their country is only surpassed by their love for their family.
Let the veterans of this great country know they are appreciated today.

We all came together,
Both young and old.
To fight for our freedom,
To stand and be bold.
In the midst of all evil,
We stand our ground,
And we protect our country
From all terror around.
Peace and not war Is what some people say.
But I'll give my life,
So you
can live the American way.
I give you the right
To talk of your peace.
To stand in your groups,
And protest in our streets.
But still I fight on,
I don't *****, I don't whine.
I'm just one of the people
Who is doing your time.
I'm harder than nails,
Stronger than any machine.
I'm the immortal
soldier,
I'm a US MARINE!
So stand in my shoes,
And leave from your home.
Fight for the people who hate you,
With the protests they've shown.
Fight for the stranger,
Fight for the young. So they all may have,
The greatest freedom you've won.
Fight for the sick, Fight for the poor.
Fight for the cripple,
Who lives next
door.
But when your time comes,
Do what I've done.
For if you stand up for freedom,
You'll stand when the fight's done.
