On November 11, a federal holiday, we honor our military veterans, but it seems to me that our armed forces should be honored every day for the sacrifices they make to protect our country.

My oldest brother, Victor, served  in the army during the Vietnam war. My brother-in-law, David, passed away several years ago. He was a marine. My husband served in the army during Vietnam, and is still by my side.

To all the courageous men and women who serve in the armed forces, I issue heartfelt hugs, prayers, and sincere thanks for keeping our country safe. God Bless You!
